The correct answer is: Unit cell


    • The crystal lattice is the arrangement of atoms in a crystal.
    • The unit cell is the small repeating entity of the atom structure
    • The crystal structure is the arrangement of unit cells stacked in three-dimensional space.
    • The shape is defined as the form of an object or its outline.
