There is more than one kind of nucleus; the most usual types are cell nuclei and atomic nuclei, and even then, not all cell nuclei and not all atomic nuclei are the same size either.

The average size of an animal cell nucleus is 900-1000nm.

What is prominent nucleus?

A prominent nucleus typically refers to a nucleus within a cell that is easily visible under a microscope due to its size, shape, or staining properties. It can indicate active cellular processes or a high level of genetic material within the nucleus. This prominence can be observed in situations such as cell division, cellular stress, or disease states.


What is the size of the Nucleus?

Assuming you're talking about the nucleus of an atom, the nucleus is very small relative to the atom's volume as a whole. However, it makes up nearly all of an atom's mass, because it contains all the protons and neutrons. So, relative to the total atom, the nucleus is very small and very dense.


What is karyoplasmic index?

The karyoplasmic index is a ratio that measures the size of the cell nucleus (karyoplasm) relative to the cytoplasm in a cell. It is often used in pathology to assess cell characteristics, such as malignancy or cellular differentiation. A higher index indicates a larger nucleus relative to the cytoplasm, which can provide insights into the cell's activity and function.


What is the size of the endoplasmic reticulum in micrometres?

Mitochondria are about 0.5-1.5 micrometres in width and 3-10 micrometres in length. I can't find an approximate size for the endoplasmic reticulum, but if you compare it to the nucleus, the RER+SER together surround the nucleus and are slightly larger than the nucleus when put together.


Why is a microscope useful in determining the actual size of a specimen?

A microscope is useful in determining the actual size of a specimen because it magnifies the image, allowing for detailed observation of the structure and dimensions of the specimen. By comparing the magnified image to a calibrated scale, scientists can accurately measure the size of the specimen.

How is knowledge about the size of the atomic nucleus is based on probability?

The size of a nucleus may be measured by firing sub-atomic particles at the nucleus and counting the proportion that bounce off the nucleus rather than miss it entirely. Assuming that the nucleus is spherical in shape, the ratio allows its size to be estimated.


How does the size of an atomic nucleus compare with the size of the whole atom?

Think of the sun as the nucleus and the oort cloud (past pluto) as where the electron orbitals start. The size (volume) of the nucleus is tiny compared to the size (volume) of the atom (defined by the extent of the electron cloud).


How much would a nucleus the size of a grape weigh?

A nucleus the size of a grape would weigh virtually nothing, as the vast majority of an atom's mass is contained in its nucleus, which is incredibly tiny compared to the size of a grape.

Why the size of atom is biggest than nucleus?

The size of an atom is bigger than the nucleus because an atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by electron clouds. The electrons are located further away from the nucleus, leading to the overall larger size of the atom.
