Approximate size of a typical nucleus is

Options

  1. A10⁻⁵ m
  2. B10^6 m
  3. C10^5 m
  4. D10⁻⁶ m

Correct answer

D. 10⁻⁶ m

Step-by-step solution

The nucleus is a smaller structure enclosed within the cell. For order-of-magnitude comparisons, its typical size is approximated as 1 micrometer ( 1 m). Converting this value to meters: 1 m = 10⁻⁶ m. Therefore, the approximate size of a typical cell nucleus is 10⁻⁶ m. Answer: 10⁻⁶ m
