Comments P.5 4th paragraph: "The energy input rates for cells with the C contents and growth rates quoted earlier are [assuming the energy costs in entry (5) of Table 2] 39.1×10^-12 W per cell for the 5 µm radius cell, and 156 to 186×10^-12 W per cell for the 10 µm radius cell (depending on which growth rate is assumed). The energy output rate [as ATP with a P/O2 (P/CO2) of 6, and the free energy of ATP hydrolysis given in entry (1) of Table 2] for maintenance respiration is 5.4×10^-14 W per cell for the 5 µm radius cell, and 21.6 to 25.5×10^-14 W per cell for the 10 µm radius cell (depending on which rate is assumed)."
