Answer:
There are 8345714 cell membranes.
Explanation:
It is given that,
The thickness of a cell membrane is 7 nm
We need to find the number of cell membranes would it take to make a stack 2.3 inches high.
Firstly, the units must be same i.e. converting 2.3 inches to m
1 inch = 0.0254 m
2.3 inches = 0.05842 m
Let there are n number of cell membranes. So,
[tex]n=\dfrac{\text{stack height}}{\text{1 membrane thickness}}\\\\n=\dfrac{0.05842}{7\times 10^{-9}}\\\\n=8345714.28[/tex]
or
n = 8345714 cell membranes
