Explanation:

• Proteins are biomolecules, typically 1-100 nm in size, the smallest here.
• Influenza viruses are ~80-120 nm, smaller than bacteriophages like T2.
• T2 bacteriophages are ~200 nm long, larger than viruses but smaller than bacteria.
• E. coli (prokaryote) is ~1-2 μm, smaller than eukaryotic cells.
• Eukaryotic cells are 10-100 μm, the largest of the group.

Answer:

1. Protein
2. Influenza virus
3. T2 bacteriophage
4. E. coli bacterium
5. Eukaryotic cell
