kilo
The smallest prefix in the SI is yocta- which is 1 x 10 -24, or a quadrillionth.
The smallest unit of measured length marked on a 300mm rule is 1mm.
Heredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from its parent or ancestors).That being said, the smallest unit of Heredity is a gene, because a gene is the smallest unit capable of conveying a genetic message. Technically the smallest unit of heredity is a cistron, but that's essentially the same as a gene.I would have said a nucleotide, but a single nucleotide can't convey a hereditary message.
Units of measurement aren't made up of anything. The smallest unit of measurement is the Plank unit - 10^-35m. The smallest sub atomic particle is a Neutrino, and it is made up of, a Neutrino!
cell
The basic, smallest unit of life, is the cell.
A metric prefix or SI prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a decadic multiple or fraction of the unit. The various prefix unit are kilo , hecto,deca,deci.
The prefix, deca, represents a multiple of the basic unit.
A metric prefix or SI prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a decadic multiple or fraction of the unit. The various prefix unit are kilo , hecto,deca,deci.
It indicates 10-12 of a unit.
Because they indicate the relationship of the unit to the base unit
The prefix 'deci' is used to indicate one tenth the value of the unit.
A morpheme is the smallest meaningful unit of language, such as a prefix or a root word, while a syllable is a unit of pronunciation containing a vowel sound. A morpheme can stand alone as a word or be a part of a word, while a syllable is a unit of sound within a word.
kilo-
There is no such thing as smallest unit in the metric system. For example, the official prefix for the smallest unit is "yocto-", which is one septillionth (10^-24). But measurements can go on to 10^-11 yoctometres which is the Planck length, the smallest measurable distance.
The smallest unit of life is the cell. All of life is composed of cells. This is one part of the cell theory.
The metric prefix for 10 is deka-. This is similar (but different) from the metric prefix for 1/10 which is deci-
A unit prefix is a specifier or mnemonic that is prepended to units of measurement to indicate multiples or fractions of the units.
