In a dog, a white blood cell, neutrophil, measures 1.2 x 10^-5 in diameter with a flu virus that measures 1.2 x 10^-7. What is the difference in the order of magnitude?	The neutrophil is 100 times bigger than the virus
If a palisade cell is 7x10^-5, a red blood cell is 7x10^-6, and a bacteria cell was 1x10^-6, what is the difference in order of magnitude?	The difference in order of magnitude between the palisade cell and red blood cell is 1. So, the palisade cell is 10 times bigger than the virus. The red blood cell is also seven times bigger than the bacteria cell.
