First you must obtain an adequate sample of the cells (and their nucleus) which you wish to measure. Once you have the slides you have to methods of measuring: 1.- using a microscope with a graded eyepiece. This requires a few simple steps of calculation regarding magnification of the different lenses on the microscope. 2.- Capturing digital images of the cell nucleus at a known magrnification and then using a program to measure the diameter of the cell nucleus ( I am currently using the free program IMAGETOOLS to do exactly that!!) This also requires a few simple steps of calculation regarding magnification of the different lenses on the microscope.This requires a few simple steps of calculation regarding magnification of the different lenses on the microscope....but in this case the computer program does it for you.

What is the length of DNA in each chromosome is longer than the diameter of the animal cell?
The DNA in each chromosome is longer than the diameter of an animal cell. Chromosomes are necessary to package and organize the long strands of DNA within the cell's nucleus. The DNA in a typical animal cell is tightly coiled and packaged to fit within the nucleus, which is much smaller than the length of the DNA in its extended form.
What is the relative size and and parts of a nucleus?
The nucleus is a small, dense organelle found in the center of a cell. It is typically about 10 micrometers in diameter and contains the cell's genetic material, known as DNA. The nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope and contains a nucleolus, where ribosomes are assembled.
What organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell?
The nucleus is the organelle that manages and controls all cell functions in a eukaryotic cell. It contains the cell's genetic material and regulates gene expression, cell division, and protein synthesis.
What organelle act as the boss inside of a cell?
The cell nucleus.
What cell contains DNA and is the control center of the cell?
The nucleus, and the nucleolus. thanks, Steph :)
The nucleus of a cell is about 0.000625 cm in diameter. What is the diameter of this nucleus expressed in millimeters?
0.00625mm
Is the nucleus the biggest organelle in a cell?
The diameter of a typical nucleus is only about 1 × 10-14 m (4 × 10-13 in), or about 1/100,000 of the diameter of the entire atom.
What is the size of DNA in eukaryotic cell?
The distance between bases in DNA is about 340 picometres. The diameter of the DNA helix is about 2 nanometres. The nucleus is about 6 micrometres in diameter. This is about 10% of the cell.

The DNA in a typical animal cell is tightly coiled and packaged to fit within the nucleus, which is much smaller than the length of the DNA in its extended form.
What is the diameter of nucleus?
The diameter of a nucleus can vary depending on the type of cell it belongs to. On average, the diameter of a cell nucleus is about 5-10 micrometers. However, in some larger cells or under certain conditions, the nucleus can be larger.
What cell part contains an organism's genome?
The nucleus of the cell contains the genome.
What does nucleus do for cell?
the nucleus is the brain of the cell.
Is a nucleus a plant cell?
No. The nucleus is the part of the cell that holds the DNA. Plant cells have a nucleus, but a nucleus by itself is not a cell.
What is the control center of a a cell?
It is called the nucleus of the cell.
Does a nucleus have a nucleus?
the nucleus is like the brain of a cell. it tells the cell what to do
How does the diameter of the nucleus compare to the diameter of the atom?
The diameter of the nucleus is several orders of magnitude smaller than the diameter of the atom. The nucleus is approximately 10,000 times smaller than the overall size of the atom.
