Solution

The correct option is A True
A unit cell is the smallest repeating portion of a crystal lattice. Unit cells occur in many different varieties.

The cubic crystal system is composed of three different types of unit cells: (1) simple cubic, (2) face-centred cubic, and (3) body-centred cubic.

Metals are mostly found in solid form and in crystal form also.

Hence, it is a true statement.
