Most bacteria have an optimal surface area-to-volume ratio (SA/V) that balances growth, available nutrients, and cellular compon

ents. A sphere-shaped bacterium and a rod-shaped bacterium have the same volume, but the surface area of the sphere-shaped bacterium is 4.6 µm2 and that of the rod-shaped bacterium is 0.8 µm2.
Which statement compares the nutrient diffusion of the bacteria?

-It will be the same in the sphere-shaped and rod-shaped bacteria since both have similar SA/V ratios.
-It will be slower in the sphere-shaped bacterium since it has a higher SA/V ratio.
-It will be faster in the sphere-shaped bacterium since it has a higher SA/V ratio.
-It will be faster in the sphere-shaped bacterium since it has a lower SA/V ratio.

In plant roots, the Casparian strip _ Group of answer choices (A) aids in the uptake of nutrients; (B) provides energy for the a
swat32

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Casparian strips are the strips or band composed of a hydrophobic substance called the suberin which forms the ring-like structure in the endodermis of the vascular plants.

The Casparian strips are present around the vascular bundles in the endodermis to allow the uptake of the selective nutrients as the substance has to pass through the cell membrane before it enters the centre of the root or stele or vascular bundles.

The Casparian strips allow the movement of a substance through symplast mode only, therefore, is ensures the substance to pass through the cell membrane.

Thus, Option-D is correct.
