Surface Area to Volume Ratio and the Relation to the Rate of Diffusion Aim and Background This is an experiment to examine how the Surface Area / Volume Ratio affects the rate of diffusion and how this relates to the size and shape of living organisms.
The surface area to volume ratio in living organisms is very important. Nutrients and oxygen need to diffuse through the cell membrane and into the cells. Most cells are no

SA/V ratios as well as the rate of diffusion. It was very appropriate for my investigation.
(2000) Sizes of Organism's: Surface area to Volume ratio [Web document] http://www.tiem.utk.edu/~mbeals/area_volume.html This document had an in depth discussion about the relation between Surface Area and Volume Ratio's. It used plenty of examples to get the point across more clearly. It also touched on Surface Area to Volume Ratio's of sphere's.
