TSA/V Ratio Concept

It is definitely difficult to understand the concept of TSA/V ratio unless you yourself calculate and discover the figures...And that was what I did with all my form 5 girls. Before ther are able to compare unicellular organism with multicelular organisms...let them find out the differences between the TSA/V RATIO of the two...by calculating...

And the conclusion:

The smaller size organism has higher TSA/ V Ratio..
...The smaller the size of the organism, the higher is the TSA/V ratio.

OR

AS the size of the organism increases, the TSA/ V ratio DECREASES..
