Abstract
Starting with the vector-meson-dominance parametrization of the electric and magnetic nucleon form factors, which are saturated just by the ground state vector-mesons ρ, ω and φ, then aplying the strict Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka rule and the asymptotic behaviour of form factors as predicted by quark model of hadrons, the famous one-parameter dipole formula is derived. By its comparison with space-like data up to t=-5 GeV2 the optimal value of the parameter under consideration is determined. Finaly, charge and magnetization distributions in proton and neutron are predicted.
