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 um 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 4 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 OA y t 0 4 0 0173291 OB y t 0 017329 OC y t 0 4 0 017329 OD y t 0 017329 It would take a single cell about days to grow into a multi celled spherical tumor with a volume of 0 4 cm
