Why do scientists use SI rather than the system of measurement adopted for use in their own country?
Scientists must be able to reproduce the results of experiments done by others in order to verify each other's conclusions. Using the same units worldwide removes the potential for error in converting between units or confusion between units which have different values in different places (e.g.: English mile, Irish mile, French mile, etc.).

What measurement of mass is most acurate?
The measurement of mass using the kilogram is considered to be the most accurate. The International Prototype of the Kilogram (IPK) is the current standard for mass measurement and is maintained by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM). Scientists are currently working on redefining the kilogram based on fundamental constants of nature rather than a physical prototype for even greater accuracy.
Would you rather use kilograms or ounces to measure a bicycle?

Blood pressure is not an absolute measurement, but rather it is measured using a gauge.
What is the definition and example of direct measurement?
direct measurement is when you get the answer to your data straight from the experiment rather than calculating numbers in order to receive your answer in the end.
How do you use rather?
"Rather" most commonly acts as an adverb it holds an implicit definition of some degree of measurement. Such as: "I thought that actor played his part rather well."
