Why are cells relatively small?

Biology
1 answer:
Darya [45]2 years ago
8 0

Cells are so small so the surface area and volume of them can be proportional to each other. This helps with the efficiency of the cell's absorption and waste expulsion processes. Also by the cell's smallness, communication from the nucleus to other organelles is fast and the cell can be regulated while the conditions for diffusion are still ideal.Its because they need to be able to diffuse through materials easily. Also, materials inside and outside of the cell need to easily pass through the cell membrane, which makes it harder and slower for the materials to pass through the cell membrane.

In an electrochemical cell, q = 0.0010 and k = 0.10. what can you conclude about ecell and e∘cell? in an electrochemical cell, =
Iteru [2.4K]
If there is electrochemical cell where Q = 0.0010 and K = 0.10 then the truth about Ecell and E°cell is,
Ecell is positive and E°cell is negative.
E° = (RT/nF) InQ = (RT/nF) × In(K/Q) = Positive.
Since ( K/Q) = 100 then In(K/Q) = positive

What interventions could increase monogamy among meadow voles?
bagirrra123 [75]

Upregulation of vasopressin and oxytocin in the spinal cord using microcatheter interventions could increase monogamy among meadow voles. the correct answer is option(e).

In contrast to non-monogamy, monogamy is a type of dyadic interaction in which an individual has only one partner during their lifespan or, alternatively, just one partner at any given moment. The phrase is also used to describe how some animals behave in social situations, specifically the status of having just one mate at any given time.

Inhibitory interneurons may be activated by oxytocin and vasopressin across subcortical and possibly cortical networks, including reward pathways, to moderate their effects. Brain areas that are important for maintaining behavioral and physiological equilibrium are where oxytocin and AVP are largely produced. These two peptides are produced by several cells in distinct areas of the brain, including the supraoptic nucleus (SON) and paraventricular nucleus (PVN) in the hypothalamus.
