The concave disc shape of red blood cells Maximizes the surface area of the cell , allowing for rapid movement of oxygen or carbon dioxide to and form the hemoglobin within the cell.
The relationship between its volume and surface area limits how large a cell can get.
<h3>What is cell range?</h3>
The range of a cell is defined as the quantity of material that can be found within a cell with respect to the surface area.
The range of a cell is limited by the volume and the surface area which means that the wider the surface area the more volume the cell can contain.

Answer:
Please find the explanation below
Explanation:
Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.
This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.
The ependymal cells line the ventricles of the brain. They compose a thin lining along the brain's ventricle cell, and the central canal of spinal cord. They are a type of glial cells. They play an important role in the production of cerebrospinal fluid.
