The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the largest cell. This implies we need to compare the sizes of different cells mentioned in the options. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - A) Egg of ostrich - B) Red Blood Cells (RBC) - C) White Blood Cells (WBC) - D) Mesophilic cells 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Option A: Egg of Ostrich**: The size of an ostrich egg ranges from 130 mm to 170 mm. - **Option B: Red Blood Cells (RBC)**: The size of RBCs ranges from 0.006 mm to 0.008 mm. - **Option C: White Blood Cells (WBC)**: The size of WBCs ranges from 0.012 mm to 0.015 mm. - **Option D: Mesophilic Cells**: The size of mesophilic cells ranges from 0.0012 mm to 90 mm. 4. **Comparing Sizes**: - The ostrich egg is significantly larger than all the other options. - RBCs and WBCs are much smaller, with sizes in the range of micrometers (mm) rather than millimeters (mm). - Mesophilic cells can vary in size but do not exceed the size of an ostrich egg. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the size comparisons, the largest cell among the options is the egg of an ostrich. 6. **Final Answer**: The largest cell is the egg of the ostrich (Option A). ---
