Hi I got this wrong on my quiz, and I dont understand why A model of Earth’s water budget shows that the precipitation on oceans is 420,000 km3 and the precipitation on land is 130,000 km3. If the evaporation from land is 90,000 km3, how much is the evaporation from oceans?

90,000 km3
130,000 km3
460,000 km3
550,000 km3

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!

i would start by checking his legs for cuts or breaks and then i would go grab the gurney and put him in the back of the ambulance and take him to the hospital where they would start to fix him up.
