[BOW] Highest Rate of Diffusion


What shape (radius, villi and dimples) and size allow a cell to have the highest rate of diffusion? 


The smaller the radius of the cell, the higher the rate of diffusion. However, a bigger cell shape increases rate of diffusion. The amount of villi and dimples do not matter in the rate of diffusion.
