The difference in diameter is calculated by subtracting the diameter of Cell Q from the diameter of Cell P:
5.0 x 10^-5 m - 3.0 x 10^-5 m = 2.0 x 10^-5 m
Therefore, the difference in the diameters of the two cells is 0.00002 m or 2.0 x 10^-5 m, which is equivalent to 0.02 mm.
Therefore, the correct answer is: 0.00002 m
Two cells are viewed and measured under a microscope. The approximate diameter of each cell is listed.
