The surface area of a cell is approximated by the surface area of a sphere, given by the expression, 4πr². The volume of the spherical cell is given by the expression, 4πr³/3. The ratio between surface area and volume turn out to be, 1:r/3, or 3:r. This indicates that the SA/volume ratio is inversely related to the radius of the cell. Greater the radius, lower the ratio. Higher ratios are present in the prokaryotic cells This enables them to exchange food and water from their environment by the simple process of osmosis and diffusion. Eukaryotes have a larger cell radius and size. Thus, eukaryotes find it harder to exchange food and water by simple diffusion, rather they have specialised organelle present in the cell that actively transport food and water into the cell. These specialised organelles help the cell avoid the problem due to small SA/volume ratio.

The type of chemical reaction responsible for breaking polymers back down into monomers is known as a condensation (or dehydrati
muminat
<span>This statement is false. When breaking down polymers into monomers, the reaction that takes place is hydrolysis. Remember when combing monomers the water is taken out dehydration, when breaking them up, you have to add a cleaved water molecule, and the breaking of water is hydrolysis.</span>

Usualmente la recesiones provocan
Over [174]

Answer:

La recesión provoca un aumento en el gasto público del gobierno para hacer que la economía flote hasta que haya estabilidad. Esta es una característica común en la economía y, como tal, ayuda a amortiguar el efecto de una recesión. Se perderán muchos empleos, aumentando así los niveles de desempleo. Por lo tanto, el gobierno tiene que gastar más para ayudar a los afectados a sobrevivir.

Explanation:

Una alta tasa de desempleo y las malas condiciones económicas llevan al gobierno a un mayor gasto durante el tiempo de recesión. El propósito es ayudar a estimular la economía y ayudarla a sobrevivir las dificultades económicas. Un ejemplo típico es el paquete de estímulo de Obama en los Estados Unidos de América en 2009 en respuesta a la gran recesión.
