Determining the surface area of biological materials is important for calculation and/or modeling of transpiration, respiration rate, soil nutrient uptake, cardiac output, chemotherapy dosage, heat transfer, etc. Using the tables from "Biology for Engineers" by Arthur Johnson (uploaded to Canvas in the Physical Properties of Biomaterials Tables file) and equations discussed in class, calculate the surface area of a Hereford bull (1106.7 lb) and compare it to that of the tallest man in U.S. history (8.0 ft 11.0 in tall and 439.0 lb according to the Guinness World Records). Quantify the comparison of surface areas rather than simply saying one is greater than the other.

Calculate the soil bulk density, also known as dry bulk density, for a 187.4 g dry soil sample taken using the cylindrical core shown. 2.45 cm 7.53 cm
