 3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's    (or)      3E11 RBC's


Solution:

Step 1: Convert mm³ into L;


As,


                                            1 mm³  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters


So,


                                         0.1 mm³  =  X  Liters


Solving for X,


                       X  =  (0.1 mm³ × 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters) ÷ 1 mm³


                       X  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


Step 2: Calculate No. of RBC's in 5 Liter Blood:


As given


                        1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters Blood contains  =  6000 RBC's


So,


                         5.0 Liters of Blood will contain  =  X  RBC's


Solving for X,


                      X  =  (5.0 Liters × 6000 RBC's) ÷ 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


                      X  =  3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's


Or,


                     X  =  3E11 RBC's

Click on the event or events that led to the formulation of the cell theory
Alexandra [31]
So back in 1665 Robert hook was able to view cells and describe them along with pictures, the reason he was able to see cells was because the microscope was invented a bit before, which allowed him to think about things differently, he was looking at a cork and saw squared objects, these objects were cells, according to him.

So while the cork was the reason he discovers cells on it in the first place,
The microscope was what allowed him to do that

So it’s (HOOKE LOOKING AT A CORK)
And it’s (THE INVENTION OF THE MICROSCOPE)
