The metric system of weights and measures?
The metric system is an international decimalised system of measurement, first adopted by France in 1791, that is the common system of measuring units used by most of the world.
Is a gram measurement of a weight in the metric system?
Yes, its the base unit for measuring mass.
What does deca mean in metric system?
Deca is used to stand for the number ten. For instance, when referring to weight, a decagram is a metric unit of measurement that is equivalent to ten grams. However, in geometry a decagram is a polygon with ten sides.
List a metric unit for each measurement length volume weight and density?
List a metric unit for each measurement: lenght, volume, weight, and density,
In the metric system weight is a?
Weight is a derived unit, measured in Newtons.
Can weight be measured in the metric system?
Yes, the Metric System has units for the measurement of weight...
What is the basic measurement in the metric system for weight?
Grams
What the definition of kilogram?
A weight measurement in the metric system, equal to approximately 2.24 pounds.
What is a measurement of weight in the standard measurement system?
the metric system is based on 1 cc of water weighing 1 gram Correction cc is not an acceptable metric symbol; a cubic centimetre is cm3 Nothing can "weigh" 1 gram - it's not a unit of weight though an object may have a mass of 1 g. The question seems to ask for any unit of weight measurement in "the standard measurement system" without defining what is meant. A metric weight unit is the newton, assuming "the standard measurement system" is SI. In the "standard" US measurement system a weight unit is a pound.

Do health care workers use metric units?
Yes. The metric system is the standard system of measurement for health care workers. Some measurements (such as patient weight) are still done in the Imperial system where that system is the system at large.
