What does a surface area/volume ratio of 6:1 mean for the cell’s ability to get the materials it needs that move across its surf
ddd [48]

Answer and Explanation:

In a cell, the smaller the surface area in relation to its volume, the lower the rate of diffusion. The ratio of surface area to volume of an object decreases sharply with increase in its size. The materials move across the cell rapidly because the cell has a larger surface area to volume ratio thus the rate of diffusion of materials is high.

If a lake where bacteria reside were to freeze, bacteria could survive by __________.
Lynna [10]
There are bacteria, like the Pseudomonas fluorescens and Marimonas protea, that can reside even in frozen surfaces. They do it by entering a dormant state where they wait patiently to be free from ice and grow again. 

Bacterial adaptation to cold surroundings also involves changes in their membrane composition and translation and transcription machinery. This includes bacterial conjugation. 

The answer is A.
