For the answer to the question above, it is <span>Considered as a cell shaped like a perfect </span>sphere<span>: it has a surface area of 4πr </span>2<span>, and a volume of (4/3)πr </span>3<span>. The surface-to-volume ratio of a </span>sphere<span> is 3/r; as the cell gets bigger, its surface-to-volume ratio decreases, making diffusion less efficient.</span>

Answer:

Convoluted surface

Explanation:

When a cell has a convoluted surface such as it has flagella, cilia and other locomotion organs as part of its essential body structure then such cells have a high ratio of surface area to volume .

In such  conditions the surface area increases but the volume decreases . However there certain losses due to high surface area such as loss of water and dissolved nutrients

What do stabilizing selection and directional selection have in common
pogonyaev

Answer:

Both are  type of natural selection and ultimately lead to selection of a set of phenotype over the entire available genotype spectrum.

Explanation:

Both the stabilizing selection and directional selection are two forms of natural selection

Also in both the selection process, a new population with a better fitment to the prevailing environmental and physical conditions evolves.

In stabilizing selection, an average phenotype is selected over extreme variation. However, by this process of selection the genetic variance of the population will decrease.

However in directional selection,  phenotypes at one end of the existing variation are selected over the entire spectrum
