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.

List two species that may be threatened by the construction of a solar power tower
DENIUS [597]

Answer: the question is incomplete,below is the complete question.

List two species that may be threatened by the construction of a solar power tower in the California Desert

The answers are, Desert torties, mountain yellow legged frog and Joshua tree.

Construction of a solar power tower in the California Desert will threaten the existence of Desert torties, mountain yellow legged frog and and Joshua tree.

Explanation: The construction of solar power towers in Mojave desert in California poses a threat to the existence of quite a number of plants.The Mojave desert houses the largest solar power plant in the world,creating the solar power tower will create job opportunities for people but at the same time endangering the existence of about 12 rare plants that are found in the region of which Desert torties, mountain yellow legged frog and Joshua tree are greatly included,these plants cannot co-exist with solar thermal mirror arrays,this brings a controversy between energy/electricity generation and wildlife/ecosystem conservation.

What allows the flow of energy through an ecosystem to happen
EleoNora [17]
It flows through the consumers (first level second level so forth). However, at each level, it loses 90 percent of the energy as heat. So at each level, each consumer will only get 10 percent of the energy.
