Hi everybody, a friend of mine asked me this question,

Which is bigger in size , a cell or an electron in an atom?

I know that an atom has protons and neutrons and the electrons orbit around

the atom. But, I don't know about the size itself.

Thanks for any idea.

@navigator,

A cell is made up of many compounds which are in turn made up of atoms. This means a cell probably has millions of electrons.

Cells are visible with a regular microscope. Atoms are not.

No, my question is about a cell and an electron size not an atom.

@navigator,

protons and neutrons are concentrated at the center of the atom (in the nucleus). electrons, in the classic model, orbit the nucleus. in other words, atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electron. not sure what you think an electron is, but you're mixed up.
