What is the size of a typical eukaryotic cell? (a) $1-2 \mu \mathrm{m}$ (b) $10-20 \mu \mathrm{m}$ (c) $10-20 \mathrm{~mm}$ (d) $1-2 \mathrm{~mm}$
Bacteria vary in size, but a diameter of 2.0 $\mu$m is not unusual. What are the volume (in cubic centimeters) and surface area (in square millimeters) of a spherical bacterium of that size? (Consult Appendix B for relevant formulas.)
