Answer:

Difference = 62.5 micrometer

Explanation:

Given that:

Diameter of red blood cell = 7.5 micrometer

Diameter of coarse grain of sand = 70 micrometers

For calculating the difference between two diameters, we will subtract the diameter of red blood cell from diameter of grain of sand.

Difference = 70 - 7.5

Difference = 62.5 micrometer

Hence,

Difference = 62.5 micrometer
