Increasing the cell's volume would reduce the efficiency of the diffusion of materials through the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm of the cell.
On the other hand, increase the surface area and decreasing the volume oft the cell would increase the rate of diffusion across the plasma membrane.
Answer:
What does the prefix Iono mean?
a combining form with the meanings “ion,” “ionized,” “ionosphere,” used in the formation of compound words: ionophore.
Convective cloud types are indicated by the root word “cumulo,” which means “heap” in Latin. Convective clouds may become very tall and are rounded on top. Clouds are also classified by their altitude and their ability to create precipitation.

Explanation:
Answer:
Control comes with regulating the amount of radiation that a patient is exposed to (using a dosimeter) while accomplishing the task required – such as taking radiology images or irradiating tumor cells. Regulating radiation levels include ensuring the right distance between the patient and radiation source and implementing requisite shielding techniques. The time duration for exposre should be short and radiation sources should also be labeled accordingly.
Answer:
Fossil fuels are produced by the same geological processes.
Explanation:
Fossil fuels form when organic matter which has been buried in the Earth over a long period of time is subjected to heat and pressure over a long period of time. Heat and pressure are both critical components for the formation of a fossil fuel. The process of the formation of fossil fuel is the same today as it was in the past. The geological processes are the same for the formation of fossils.
The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems
Reason -
The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –
a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover
b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
