c) How is a cell's potential growth affected by its ratio of surface area to volume? As the cell increases in size the volume of the cell increases more rapidly than the surface area which causes a decrease in the cell's ratio of surface area to volume and makes it more difficult for the cell to move needed materials in and waste products out.
See example below for a cube with side length 3. Thus the volume of a cube with side length 3 cm is 27 cm 3. Surface Area to Volume Ratio (SA/V) To find the ratios of surface area to volume for each cube you divide the surface area by the volume. Using the cube with side length 3 mm, you would find the SA/V ratio by dividing 54cm 2 by 27cm 3. See below. Thus the ratio for SA/V would be 2cm 2 /cm 3.
