Two models of cells are shown below. why would model b be better for
moving nutrients in and out of the cell?
o
o
a. it has a larger volume.
o
b. it has a larger ratio of surface area to volume.
o
c. it has a smaller surface area.
o
d. it has a smaller ratio of surface area to volume.

B. It has a larger ratio of surface area to volume.

Explanation:

Nutrients molecules move in and out of cells in order to keep the organism alive. There are three processes are involved to this  movement ,diffusion ,Osmosis and active transport. Larger Organisms increases their surface area to facilitate transport system and make a distances to a minimum for diffusion. On other hand organisms living in severe environmental conditions their surface area used to be reduced.

lysosomes contain a variety of enzymes, enabling the cell to break down various biomolecules it engulfs, including peptides, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids (lysosomal lipase). the enzymes responsible for this hydrolysis require an acidic environment for optimal activity. hope i !
