1.If I double the diameter of a cell, by what factor does the capacitance of the membrane change?



2. Help!



The Attempt at a Solution

 
It depends on the shape of the cell and the permittivity,geometry and structure of the surroundings.For an isolated spherical cell C is proportional to diameter.
