Are these statements about the Lattice points true? Statement 1: It is a point in a crystal with specific arrangement of atoms. Statement 2: A primitive unit cell contains more than one lattice point. Correct Answer True, False

Lattice point is a point in a crystal with specific arrangement of atoms, replicated many times in the crystal. A primitive unit cell contains one lattice point.
