It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 x 10–34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m2 s–1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and Cs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Within SI there are seven base units upon which all others are based. The base units include: mass, length, time, temperature, amount of substance, electric current, and luminous intensity.
Detailed explanation-4: -The prefixes used in the metric system and their values are defined in Table 1 below. However, the values you will most frequently encounter in biology are kilo-(1000x the base unit), milli-(0.001x base), micro-(0.000001x base) and nano-(0.000000001x base).
Detailed explanation-5: -The basic unit of mass in the metric system is the gram.
