Scale is nothing but a measuring instrument which is required

for drafting. More commonly known as the ruler, it provides you

the measurement for the drawing with the help of which you can

draft the drawing to the scale.

A scale also gives you the proportionate reduction and

enlargement of the drawing if required (Please refer to the Unit -

Scales).

The scale has two systems of measurement : British System

and Metric System

In the British system, the least factor of the scale is 1/8th of

an inch and unit is a Foot whereas in the Metric system, the least

factor is Millimeter and unit is a Meter.

Did megalodon sharks have scales?

Nearly all fish, including sharks, have scales. We don't have any fossilized impressions of Megalodon skin, but there is no reason to believe that they didn't have scales like other sharks. The scales on shark skin are useful because they trap water against the shark. Thus, the water that rubs against them mainly rubs against the water in between the scales, and that greatly reduces drag.
