A cell membrane has a resistance and a capacitance and thus acharacteristic time constant.
What is the time constant of a 8.3 nm -thick membranesurrounding a 3.6×10−2 mm -diameter spherical cell? Assume theresistivity of the cell membrane as 3.6×106 Ω⋅m and the dielectricconstant is approximately 9.0.
