Anthropometrics are the measurement of different parts of the human body - you can find data tables in a number of ergonomic text books including "Bodyspace - Anthropotmetry, Ergonomics and the Design of Work" by Pheasant and Haslegrave. However, you need to be careful with what you are using the measurements for - many anthropometric measurements come from a small sample group and there are different measurements for different ethinc groups.

Anthropometrics literally means man (anthro) measurements (metric). It is the measurement of the size and proportions of the human body, as well as parameters such as reach and visual range capabilities. Anthropometrics enables us to properly size items, including system interfaces, to the "fit" the user
Check out Biometrics and Anthropometrics
Anthropometrics provide valuable data for designing products, spaces, and systems that are better suited to human characteristics and needs. This can lead to improved comfort, safety, and efficiency for users. Additionally, anthropometric data can inform the design of products to be more inclusive and accessible to a wider range of users.
Ergonomics is the study of designing and arranging items and spaces to optimize human well-being and overall performance. Anthropometrics, on the other hand, focuses specifically on the measurements and proportions of the human body to inform design decisions. Essentially, ergonomics is broader in scope, incorporating anthropometric data as one aspect of creating user-friendly environments.

They are two different ways of measuring. A balance measures weight (or technically, mass) while a graduated cylinder measures liquid volume.
