A unit cell is
A
the smallest repetitive pattern in a crystal structure
B
the smallest bacterial culture
C
where we keep the most dangerous fugatives
D
a unit of DNA that repeats throughout the genome
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The unit cell is defined as the smallest repeating unit having the full symmetry of the crystal structure. The geometry of the unit cell is defined as a parallelepiped, providing six lattice parameters taken as the lengths of the cell edges (a, b, c) and the angles between them (, , ).

Detailed explanation-2: -The smallest repeating pattern of crystalline solids is known as the unit cell, and unit cells are like bricks in a wall-they are all identical and repeating.

Detailed explanation-3: -The smallest repeating unit of the crystal lattice is the unit cell, the building block of a crystal. The unit cells which are all identical are defined in such a way that they fill space without overlapping. The 3D arrangement of atoms, molecules or ions inside a crystal is called a crystal lattice.

Detailed explanation-4: -A unit cell is the smallest part of a crystal, it has a three-dimensional pattern of the whole lattice. The repetitive pattern of the unit cell will produce the entire crystal lattice. A unit cell has the overall symmetry of the crystal.

Detailed explanation-5: -The fundamental repeating unit of the crystal is called the unit cell. It is a three dimensional shape that can be repeated over and over by unit translations to fill space (and leave minimal gaps) in the structure.
