It is approx 6*10^-6 metres although the SI system allows one to use an appropriate prefix instead, and say 6 micrometres.

What is the scientific notation for a humanwhite blood cell?

The answer depends on what aspect of the human white blood cell you are referring to: their number in an average person, their mass, radius, volume, etc.


The diameter of a capillary is about equal to the diameter of a?

Answeran erythrocyte, or red blood cell (approx. 5um). This forces the blood cells to pass through in single file, maximising oxygen diffusion efficiency.***Average diameter of an erythrocyte is 7.8 micrometerAverage calibre (diameter of the lumen) is 5-10 micrometerThis means that the diameter of an average erythrocyte is smaller than the calibre of the narrowest capillaries. Young erythrocytes can be deformed into any shape. The old lack such deformability, hence, their membrane rupture during their passage especially through splenic capillaries. Their lifetime is 120 days. If we are hopeless to need the old ones, then the spleen will be removed.ahmetcorak


Why is scientific notation is useful?

scientific notation is useful because when you are writing out a very large or very small number you dont have to write lots of zero'zBecause sometimes numbers get really big or really small.


Where can I find LB-217?

Oh, dude, LB-217 is a chemical compound, not a lost treasure. You can find it in scientific laboratories or chemical supply stores if you have the proper credentials. Just be careful with it, unless you're looking to create some kind of mad scientist experiment... in that case, good luck!


What does Chupacabra mean?

Chupacabra is the Spanish word for "goatsucker" because it is a creature that sucks the blood out of animals. It means that it sucks ("chupa") the blood from goats ("cabras"). Other small animal deaths have been attributed to the chupacabras. Although there is no scientific support for its existence, the belief in the chupacabra is strong in some areas, due to its extensive folklore.
