Which type of defect are line defects? Correct Answer One-dimensional defect

Line defects are one dimensional defects as they extend in a singular direction in space. Line defects are present in solids whereas the whole row of atoms is arranged in anomalous order. Hence line defects are linear defects and one dimensional in nature.
