To measure the density of anything, one must divide its mass by its volume. Finding the mass of a human is as easy as stepping on a set of scales, but finding the volume is a bit more tricky. The simplest way is to completely immerse the person in a tank of water, and measure how much the water level rises. This will let you calculate how much water was displaced--that amount is the person's volume. For example, if a person weighs 75kg, and displaces 65 liters of water, they'd have a density of about 1.15 (75/65= ~1.15)
If you're using pounds and gallons instead, you'll need to divide the result by 8, since a gallon of water weighs 8 lbs. So if a 165 lb. person displaces 18 gallons of water, they'd have a density of about 1.145 (165/18=~9.16, 9.16/8=~1.145)
No a balance can not measure volume however it does measure mass. You can find the volume by using the balance to find the mass of what ever you want then if you know the density of the thing then you simply divide the mass by the density.
You can measure weight or mass in grams. Grams are commonly used to measure small quantities of ingredients in recipes or to weigh objects.
Pints, liquid or dry, are a measure of volume and ounces are a measure of weight, so they cannot be compared. However, a liquid pint is .4732 l and a dry pint is .551 l, so the dry pint is 1.164 liquid pints. Since a liquid pint is 16 fluid ounces, you could measure a dry pint as 18.63 fluid ounces.
I found four ways, so take your pick :) 1) measure the uptake of CO2 2) measure the production of O2 3) measure the production of carbohydrates 4) measure the increase in dry mass

This cannot be sensibly answered. Milliliters (mL) is a measure of volume, dry ounces are a measure of weight or mass.
Dry mass refers to the weight of an object or substance after all moisture and volatile components have been removed. It is a measure of the solid content of the material without any water or other liquids. Dry mass is often used in scientific research to accurately measure the amount of a specific substance present.

We would have to know what you are converting. Cups is a measure of volume. Pounds is a measure of weight and mass. You can not directly convert the two. It could be one to a 100 if it is lead vs. feathers.
A kilogram is a measure of mass, not of weight. They are not the same thing!

Clearly nobody in this world of 7.9 billion people can find the answer to this question that I believed was simple. This clearly proves that I am a smarter human being than everybody here as I know the answer. Just evaporate the liquids from the object and measure it in order to get the correct answer.
