Explanation:

Polarity is defined as the formation of opposite charges on the atoms of a compound due to the difference in their electronegativities.

For example, in a HCl molecule chlorine is more electronegative in nature as compared to the hydrogen atom.

Hence, chlorine will attract the valence electron of hydrogen atom more towards itself. Due to this a partial positive charge will develop on hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge will develop on the chlorine atom.

Thus, we can conclude that polarity of bonds and molecules is determined by the difference in electronegativity of the atoms involved.

How is the diffusion different in a small flat cell and a large round cell
andrezito [222]

Answer:Different cells within a single organism can come in a variety of sizes and shapes. They may not be very big, but their shapes can be very different from each other. However, these cells all have common abilities, such as obtaining and using food energy, responding to the external environment, and reproducing. In part, a cell's shape determines its function.If cells are the main structural and functional unit of an organism, why are they so small? And why are there no organisms with huge cells? The answers to these questions lie in a cell's need for fast, easy food. The need to be able to pass nutrients and gases into and out of the cell sets a limit on how big cells can be. The larger a cell gets, the more difficult it is for nutrients and gases to move in and out of the cell.

As a cell grows, its volume increases more quickly than its surface area. If a cell was to get very large, the small surface area would not allow enough nutrients to enter the cell quickly enough for the cell's needs. This idea is explained in Figure below. However, large cells have a way of dealing with some size challenges. Big cells, such as some white blood cells, often grow more nuclei so that they can supply enough proteins and RNA for the cell's requirements. Large, metabolically active cells often have lots of cell protrusions, resulting in many folds throughout the membrane. These folds increase the surface area available for transport of materials into or out of the cell. Such cell types are found lining your small intestine, where they absorb nutrients from your food through protrusions called microvilli.
