The correct Answer is:
To determine the approximate diameter of pollen grains in nanometers, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Size of Pollen Grains**: Pollen grains are microscopic structures that are typically measured in micrometers (µm). The approximate size range of pollen grains is given as 250 to 500 micrometers. 2. **Convert Micrometers to Nanometers**: We know that: - 1 micrometer (µm) = 1,000 nanometers (nm). Therefore, to convert micrometers to nanometers, we multiply the size in micrometers by 1,000. 3. **Calculate the Size in Nanometers**: - For the lower limit: \[ 250 \, \text{µm} \times 1000 = 250,000 \, \text{nm} \] - For the upper limit: \[ 500 \, \text{µm} \times 1000 = 500,000 \, \text{nm} \] 4. **Conclusion**: The approximate diameter of pollen grains ranges from 250,000 to 500,000 nanometers. ### Final Answer: The approximate diameter of pollen grains is between **250,000 nm to 500,000 nm**. ---
