a typical human cell is approximately 12.00 μm in diameter and enclosed by a membrane that is 5.000 nm thick. what is the volume

of the cell including the membrane? to simplify the calculations, model the cell as a sphere.

Volume of cell including the membrane = 9.07* 10^11 nm³

Given data:

Diameter of human cell = 12.00 μm = 12,000 nm i.e. radius = 6000 nm

thickness of membrane enclosing the human cell = 5.00 nm

Total diameter of cell including membrane = 12,000+ (52) = 12010 nm

Solution:

Volume of cell (sphere) = 4/3πr^3

where: r = 12010 / 2 = 6005 nm

4/3 * π * (6005)^3 = 9.07 * 10¹¹ nm³

Hence, volume of cell aolng with membrane is 9.07 * 10¹¹ nm³

Governments should invest more money in protecting areas of natural beauty. To what extent do you agree?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

I agree with this. And at some extent they are, but they could do better. I mean we are turning beautiful pieces of land into cities full of crime, waste, and pollution. So, yes I believe that more time and money should be invested in protecting the natural beauty of our world.

Why can't patterns of inheritance in humans be as easily as in peas or fruit flies?
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Humans produce few offspring slowly.

Explanation:

One of the reasons that patterns of inheritance in humans cannot be studied as easily as in peas or fruit flies is our generation time is approximately 20 years. Is it is about three months in peas and it is about 30 days in fruit flies. All the genes in fruit flies have been mapped. Not all of the genes in humans have been mapped.

__ is to a point source of water pollution as ________ is to a nonpoint source of water pollution.
Ad libitum [116K]
The more probable answer is b: power plant effluent; golf course runoff, although a: <span>power plant effluent; an underground coal mine drain, is also a possible answer.

The source of effluent from a power plant occupies a small, well defined space, i.e. an effluent pipe. This is what is known as a point source, as you can identify with high confidence the spatial and temporal boundaries of the source of pollution. Point sources are relatively easy to quantify and manage because they are so well defined in space and time. Reducing pollution from point sources could be achieved by simply treating effluent to a higher standard or reducing the amount of effluent released. Runoff from land, such as a golf course, is what is defined as a non-point source pollutant. The spatial and temporal aspects of this sort of pollution are much harder to define, as the pathways of runoff from the land into the river may be highly dispersed and variable over time. These sorts of pollution are therefore much harder to quantify and manage.</span>

The space between the cell wall and outer membrane in a prokaryotic cell is called the _____ space.
s344n2d4d5 [400]
Attached is a picture/diagram of both a gram negative bacteria and a gram positive bacteria. This question most likely pertains to gram negative bacteria as only gram negative bacteria as an outer lipopolysaccharide (LPS) membrane.

It should be noted that there must be an error in the question as the bacterial cell wall comprises of the peptidoglycan layer (for gram positive) or the outer membrane plus the peptidoglycan layer (in gram negative). The better question would be what is the space between the cell wall and the plasma membrane in a prokaryotic cell, and the answer is the periplasmic space.
