What is cell surface area-to-volume ratio, and why is it important in regards to cell size?

Biology
1 answer:
yawa3891 [41]4 years ago
5 0

The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

What is the purpose of using genetic engineering to create edible vaccines?
Georgia [21]


A benefit of genetic engineering is the production of valuable proteins that have helped in managing of illness in human beings. Bacteria were genetically engineered to produce proteins of medical importance. One example of such a protein is human insulin which is given the name humulin and is made using E. coli bacteria.Earlier,  insulin from pig cells was used to treat patients with diabetes but many of them could not tolerate it because it has a slightly different arrangement of amino acids from that of humans and so the human body rejects it. Humulin is tolerated by the human body and so many patients are now using it to lead normal lives.

Scientific evidence documents the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories. What are the categories?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The categories of patterns of evolution are: <em>genetics/molecular biology, direct observation of evolutionary change, the fossil record, homology/anatomy, and biogeography</em>

Explanation:

  1. <u>Anatomy.</u> Also known as Homology, is the study of homologous structures of species with similar physical features, as proof of direct descent and ancestry.
  2. <u>Molecular biology and Genetics</u>. DNA and the genetic code reflects the shared ancestry of life, indicative of how species are related.
  3. <u>Fossil Records.</u> Fossils register the existence of pre-existing species which are related to present-day species.
  4. <u>Biogeography</u>. The geographic distribution of organisms on Earth, as well as their distinct features is an indicator of evolution and geological change.
  5. <u>Direct observation. </u>Organisms with short lifespan can be observed as evolutionary cases.
