Question

How many palisade cells from plant leaves would fit in a volume of `1.0 cm^3` of cells if the average volume of a palisade cell is `0.0147 mm^3`?

Answer 1

`68027` cells from plant leaves would fit in a volume of `1.0cm^3`

Explanation:

As `1cm=10mm`, `1.0cm^3=10^3mm^3` or `1.0cm^3=1000mm^3`

Hence number of palisade cells from plant leaves would fit in a volume of `1.0cm^3` are `(1000mm^3)/(0.0147mm^3)`

= `1000/0.0147=10000000/147=68027.21` or `68027`

• as `0.21` of a cell has no meaning.
