Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: It is true that there are over 900 trillion cells in the human body, and that 100 trillion of these cells are body cells. The other 800 trillion cells are microbes. These microbes generally exist in a symbiotic relationship with humans, meaning they do not cause disease.
Detailed explanation-2: -Human and bacterial cells The first one estimates the number of cells in a 100-kilogram male using an average cell volume of between 1, 000 and 10, 000 cubic micrometers. This gave them a “back of the envelope estimate” in a range of 30 to 40 trillion cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Every one of the 37 trillion-or-so cells in your body is unique to some extent. Types of cell are determined by the particular proteins they contain – so only a red blood cell has haemoglobin, for example, and a neuron contains different proteins from an immune cell.
