Suppose the cells of a tumor are idealized as spheres each

Suppose the cells of a tumor are idealized as spheres each with a radius of 4 m micrometers The number of cells has a doubling time of 40 days Approximately how long will it take a single cell to grow into a multi celled spherical tumor with a volume of 0 6 cm 1 cm 10 000 m Assume that the tumor spheres are tightly packed Choose the function below that best gives the exponential growth for a number of cells where y t is the number of cells in the tumor A y t 0 6e0 017329t B y t 0 017329t C y t 0 017329t OD y t 0 6e 0 017329t It would take a single cell about days to grow into a multi celled spherical tumor with a volume of 0 6 cm
