If honey is not organic that means that bees were using the flowers with pesticides. Organic beekeeping is the beekeeping practiced in clean environment, without intensive agriculture, use of synthetic feed and chemicals harmful for the bees.
Thereâs no way of knowing exactly how many of Henriettaâs cells are alive today. One scientist estimates that if you could pile all HeLa cells ever grown onto a scale, theyâd weigh more than 50 million metric tonsâan inconceivable number, given that an individual cell weighs almost nothing.
In these cell types, the cell volumes are captured by a rule of thumb value of 2000 Âµm 3 with a range of 500-4000 Âµm 3 3 with a variance of about 300 Âµm 3. To put these cellular sizes in perspective, if we think of E. coli as having the size of a human being, then a HeLa cell is about the size of a blue whale.igure 2: Distribution of cell sizes for L1210, a mouse lymphoblast cell line. The cell volumes are reported in units of fL (1 fL = 1 Âµm 3). (Adapted from A. Tzur et al.
