The base measure of length is the metre which is 1000 millimetres. A millimetre is about the thickness of a credit card. There are 1000 metres in 1 kilometre.
The base measure of mass is the kilogram which is 1000 millilitres. A teaspoon holds about 5 millilitres. There are 1000 litres in a kilolitre.

What unit are used in the metric system to report temperature?
Celsius (Fahrenheit for Imperial measurements)
Give an example of English system and metric system?
The US Customary system is a system of measurements which is used only in the US and seldom elsewhere. Some of its measurements include: inch, yard, mile, pound, quart, pint, etc. Elsewhere, the metric system is used. This is an efficient system because it is based on powers of 10. Some metric units include: kilogram, millimeter, centimeter, and kilometer.
Measurements used in the metric system?
Litres, milliletres, millimetres, centimetres, metres, kilometres, grams, kilograms
Is the Metric System used more frequently than the Imperial System of Measurements?
Yes, the metric system is the most used system. Only a few countries out of many still use the Imperial system. Even in the USA, where the Imperial system is still in use, the scientific disciplines use the metric system because it is universal.
What advantages does the metric system have over systems that were used previously?
The metric system uses simpler math when converting measurements and will allow us to use recipes from all over the world.
Instruments used to measure metric?
"Metric" is a whole system of weights and measurements. Many different devices are used to measure things in the system.
What are the different fluid measurements?
That depends wether you are in the metric system or the system used by the US. In the US the mesurtements are Ounces, Pints, Quarts, and Gallons
Which measurements are used in the metric system?
millimetres, centimetres, metres, and kilometres
What unit are used in the metric system to report temperature?
Celsius (Fahrenheit for Imperial measurements)
What type of thermometer is used by a scientist?
Science measurements use the metric system and the Celsius temperature scale is used for most measurements. The Kelvin scale is also used for measurements approaching absolute zero.

Is a pound an english or metric unit?
A pound is part of the imperial system of measurements, which were used in England, and elsewhere, before the introduction of metric measurements.

What is the metric unit of measurement of a ruler?
Centimetres and millimetres are the metric measurements used on a metric ruler.
What side of a ruler measures metric units?
The main unit in the metric system is the meter. It measures length.
