Platelets and red blood cells are components of the blood. A typical platelet and red blood cell have diameters of approximately 2.33×10−6 m and 0.0000075 m, respectively. Which blood component has a bigger diameter, and approximately by how much?(1 point)
1 answer
A typical red blood cell has a diameter of 0.0000075 m, which is larger than the diameter of a typical platelet (2.33×10^(-6) m). The difference in diameter is approximately 0.0000075 m - 2.33×10^(-6) m = 0.00000582 m.
