We measure very small things in “Millimeters (mm)”, “Micrometers (mm)”, “Nanometers (nm)”, and “Picometers (pm)”. One Millimeter is equal to one thousandth of a meter. One Micrometer(mm) is equal to one millionth of a meter. One Nanometer is equal to one billionth of a meter. And one Picometer(pm) is equal to one trillionth of a meter. 503872566675000The “things” below are NOT in order of size. Today, you are going to use an interactive (called Cell Size and Scale) to figure out how big (or small) all of these things are compared to each other. ()Directions: 5102225105410001. As we go through the interactive, write the name of each thing from Biggest to Smallest on the Scale below.2. Then, draw each thing next to its name. 14668507556500507682513208000507365033591500Biggest6505575283209The Common Cold 00The Common Cold 507492028257500507682535877500507682540259000140970074383900050768253848100050768254445000506603015113000503872513462000SmallestAnalysis: 1.
