What does this number measure?
An exceptionally large human cell, measured without its outer layers. Displayed dimension: representative diameter.
Compare the stated dimensions
The comparison uses the number in each fact sheet: altitude, height, diameter, length or distance, depending on the reference. Two values in metres do not necessarily describe the same property.
Source and limitations
Catalogue value to check against the source; not individually audited.
Human oocyte: a transparent model of the cell and its contents, without external cell layers. Organelles, colours and proportions are interpreted; representative diameter of the cell itself.
