Two cells are viewed and measured under a microscope. The approximate diameter of each cell is listed.
Cell P: 5.0x10^-4m
Call Q: 3.0x10^-5m
What is the difference in the diameter of the two cells?
A. 0.002m
B. 0.00047m
C. 0.047m
D; 0.05m
The difference in diameter between cell P and cell Q is calculated by subtracting the diameter of cell Q from the diameter of cell P:
(5.0x10^-4m) - (3.0x10^-5m) = 4.7x10^-4m
Therefore, the difference in diameter of the two cells is 0.00047m, which is option B.
