Explanation / Answer

1. UNITS OF MEASUREMENT:

a. SIZE- Imperial system measures size in acre whereas the metric system measures it in square metres.

b. WEIGHT- Imperial sytem measures weight in pounds whereas the metric system measures it in kilograms, miligrams etc.

c. VOLUME: IMperial system measures it in ounces, gallons, pint, quart whereas metric system measures it in mililitres, cubic centimetres etc.

B. a. Deci- the symbol is d and is of the factor 10-1.

b, Centi- the symbol is c and is of the factor 10-2

c.Micro - The symbol is µ and is of the factor 10-6

  d. Nano- The symbol is n and is of the factor 10-9

e. Mili- The symbol is m and is of the factor 10-3

f. Pico- The symbol is p and is of the factor 10-12

C. i. Cells- They can range in µm.

ii. Bacteria and yeast- They range in micrometres or µm.

iii. DNA or genetic materials- They are of nanometres in size or nm.

iv. Viruses- They are of nanometres in size or nm.
