  • Cells are microscopic in order to maximise their surface area compared to their volume (surface area to volume ratio - SA:V). Having a large SA:V enables the cell to be highly efficient at exchanging materials (nutrients and wastes) with its surroundings. This video explains SA:V, how it works and why it is so important to cells. For more Biology video lessons check out www.anytimeeducation.com
