1 centigram is equal to about 5 mosquitoes.
For example a small insect.
2 large mosquitos or one housefly
1 centigram is equal to about 5 mosquitoes.
10 grains of sugar
a large ant
There are 10 decigrams in a gram. there are also 1 million micrograms in gram. Therefore, there are 100,000 micrograms in a decigram. So that means that there are 0.00001 decigrams in a microgram.
a cow
Deci means ten and kilo means one thousand. Kilogram is larger.
A megagram is equal to 1,000,000 grams, 1,000 kilograms, or 1 tonne. An example of this weight would be one cubic metre of pure water.
One kilogram weighs approximately 2.205 pounds on earth, 0.36 pounds on the moon, or 0.84 pounds on Mars. On the way from one of them to another, one kilogram weighs nothing.
A ant, any kind of small bug.
One decigram is equal to 0.1 grams.
deci is one of the SI prefixes. Deci means 1/10th of a gram. This is not to be confused with deca which means 10 grams.
One carat (1.00 carat) weighs about .02 grams, and what you want is an example of something that weighs .15 carats. Any US paper bill (currency) weighs one gram. So if you cut the bill into fifths, you'd have a strip of currency that weighs one carat. Then you'd cut the strip again into 20 equal pieces. Three of the remaining pieces will weigh .15 carats.
Because 1 decigram = 1/10 gram and 1 milligram = 1/1000 gram.
Gram
One tenth of a gram is called a decigram.
10 decigrams
1 decigram = 0.1 gram.
One decigram equals ten centigrams.
Neither one. A decigram measures how much a certain container holds, while a centimeter measures the length of something. For instance, you might have a small glass that holds 92 decigrams of motor oil, and the height of that glass might measure 11 centimeters. (Or any of a range of measurements.)
There are very few common objects that weigh 1 milligram. However, if you live in the US a new one dollar bill weighs about a gram, so if you can imagine a dollar bill being cut into 1000 pieces each piece would be a milligram
