The second largest crater in the world was formed by the impact of a comet according to a 2014 study by researchers in Canada and Ireland. Colliding with Earth almost 1.85 billion years ago, the estimated diameter of the crater is 81 miles (130 km).
How big is a bacteria compared to a human cell? The size of a typical bacterial cell is 0.5-5.0 micrometers, a average human cell is 10 micrometers.8 people found this useful.Edit.he consensus among biologists is that only 5 to 10% of the trillions of cells in our bodies are human. The rest are alien cells: yeast, fungi, bacteria, viruses.
Human bodies donât contain 10 times as many bacteria as human cells, new calculations suggest. A âstandard manâ weighing 70 kilograms has roughly the same number of bacteria and human cells in his body, researchers report online January 6 at bioRxiv.org. This average guy would be composed of about 40 trillion bacteria and 30 trillion human cells, calculate researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Thatâs a ratio of 1.3 bacteria to every one human cell. That estimate could be off by as much as 25 percent, with the average number of bacteria ranging from 30 trillion to 50 trillion. Among individual people, the bacterial count could vary as much as 52 percent, say Ron Sender, Shai Fuchs and Ron Milo.
