Title: Explain the function of surface-area-to-volume ratio in microscopic and/or macroscopic systems.
Course: Biological Applications in Agriculture (18308-I) > Section: Understanding Cell Structure and Functions

Explanation should include

- how to calculate surface area and volume
- how to determine the surface-area-to-volume ratio
- the relationship between the surface-area-to-volume ratio and the system’s ability to transport materials and gases.

Process/Skill Questions:

- How do solute and solvent concentrations affect plant and animal cells differently?
- How can the shape of a cell alter the surface-area-to-volume ratio?
