MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -micrometre, also called micron, metric unit of measure for length equal to 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inch. Its symbol is m. The micrometre is commonly employed to measure the thickness or diameter of microscopic objects, such as microorganisms and colloidal particles.

Detailed explanation-2: -1 m or 1micrometer is equal to 10-6 m i.e. one-millionth of a meter. The next smallest unit after a micrometer is a nanometer. 1nm or 1nanometer is equal to 10-9 m i.e. one billionth of a meter. 1 Angstrom or 1Å is equal to 10-10 m.

Detailed explanation-3: -The µm is an abbreviation for the unit of measurement known as a micrometre. It is also sometimes referred as a micron, but this term is outdated. It is also sometimes displayed as um, which is incorrect. The “µ” symbol means micro (it’s also the twelfth letter of the Greek alphabet).

Detailed explanation-4: -1 micron is equal to 11000000 metres which is equal to 1×10−m metres.
