Answer:

Surface area to volume ratio, in simple means the size of surface area to the volume of substance that can pass through it at a particular time.

Amoeba and some bacterias are flat and have large surface area to volume ratio. So the diffusion rate is very high due to large surface area.

Where as humans have small surface area: volume so diffusion is very slow or does not take place at all.

Explanation:

As the ratio gets smaller, it takes longer for items to diffuse.

Explanation:

When the cell increases in size, the volume increases faster than the surface area, because volume is cubed where surface area is squared.

When there is more volume and less surface area, diffusion takes longer and is less effective. This is because there is a greater area that needs to receive the substance being diffused, but less area for that substance to actually enter the cell.

this is actually why cells divide. When they become too large and it takes too long for them to transport materials across the cell, they lose efficiency and divide in half to raise the surface area to volume ratio.

Muscle contraction that results in a change in joint angle is called <span>concentric contraction.
This contraction occurs when enough force that can overcome the resistance applied is developed by the muscle where this force developed is larger than the force of the resistance applied.</span>

ER, Golgi body and other membrane bound organelles often work together to produce a finished functional product. What structure
Anvisha [2.4K]

The ER synthesizes most substances of the cell, and then the Golgi body ins the one to classify, distribute, and modify them.

The proteins forming the cytoskeleton are the ones that hold everything in place.

The main proteins doing this are the microtubules, microfilaments, and Intermediate filaments.

Also, mention the carrier proteins, that move substances inside the cell.
