Answer:It affects the diffusion across a membrane

Explanation:

Since this is placed in the AP section, I assume it is AP Biology, which the syllabus puts emphasis on diffusion

The smaller the ratio is, the bigger the cell. SO, if the ratio is small enough, the molecule will not be able to diffuse through the membrane. Keep that in mind when you calculate different rations using the radius.
