Imagine that a bacterium can be modeled as a sphere of water with a radius of 1 m, and that a cell in your body can be modeled as a similar sphere but with a radius of 10 m.

a) Approximately how long would it take for glucose molecules suddenly released in the center of the cell to become homogeneously distributed throughout the bacterium?

b) How long would the same process take in the cell of your body?
