[Gmsh] Increasing/Changing the number of cells

Dear to whom it may concerns,

I'm currently trying to generate the mesh for a Membrane with GMSH programm
and i would like to ask a few questions since i'm new to it.

I attached the Mesh i generated so far, it's a Cylindrical Mesh (To
represent a membrane 800 micrometers of diameters and 2 micrometers of
thickness).

It says on Statistical that there are no Nodes in the Volume.
Now my point and question is:

I would like to have two layer of elements inside the volume from the top
to the bottom (Along z axis that is the one with 2 micrometer), e,g surface
elements + 2 layer of elements inside the membrane + the bottome surface
layer of elements. Is it possible to explicity say this to the program ?

Second) I also would like to export the geometry to FeniCS, Does the mesh
keep the same geometries once the file is transfered in XML file (The one
for FeniCS).
e.g. i used 400 of raidus will this radius be 400 without explicit unit
measure also in FeniCS?

Thank you for your patience,
Matteo
