| Comments |
"The average nuclear volume, cell volume, and nuclear volume as percent of cell volume (NV/CV) for each species
studied are given in the Table. When
values in column 5 are averaged, the
nucleus is seen to occupy 18% of the
total cell volume, a cyto-nuclear ratio
of 5.6:1. However, an average of all
individual NV/CV values (170 cells) shows a ratio of 5.3:1 (19±1%)." |
