    Surface area to volume ratio decreases as organisms increase in size. Diffusion becomes inefficient for large organisms, requiring a transport system. Plants need transport systems to move water and large molecules throughout their bodies due to decreasing surface area to volume ratios as they grow larger. Their root systems absorb water and nutrients which are then transported through xylem and phloem tissues to the leaves and other parts of the plant.

    6- Calculate and answer these questions?

    Discuss the relationship between surface area with volume ratio,


    and Why the plants need transport system to get water and big
    molecules .

    4cm 3cm 2cm

    Cubs volume Surface area Surface


    area/volume
    ratio
    2cm 23= 8 22*624= 3:1
    3cm 33 = 27 32*6 =
    4cm 43 = 64 42*6

    - As the organisms increase in size the


    surface area/ volume ration decreases
    - Diffusion won't be efficient that means large
    organisms need transport system.
