The total number of pixels in a 24-megapixel camera is embodied in how many individual pixels?

  1. 12 million

  2. 16 million

  3. 24 million

  4. 36 million

The correct answer is: 24 million

A 24-megapixel camera refers to the total resolution of the camera sensor, which is measured in millions of pixels. The term "megapixel" literally means one million pixels. Therefore, a camera that is classified as 24 megapixels contains 24 million individual pixels, which collectively create the images produced by the camera. Each pixel plays a significant role in determining the overall quality and detail of the image. The higher the number of pixels, the more details can be captured, allowing for larger prints and more extensive cropping capabilities without losing image quality. Thus, the choice indicating 24 million accurately reflects the total pixel count specified in the question.
