Different things require different measurements. The longer the object is, the bigger you would want the measuring ruler to be, right? When measuring objects, you would want the measurement to be as accurate as possible. Tiny objects would be usually mm, then cm, then m, then km as the objects get longer (basic forms of measurement). Hope this helped!

That depends exactly how small it is. Centimeters are for smaller things.
You don't. Those measurements measure completely different - and incompatible - things.Centimeters are a unit of length, and as such can be converted to other units of length, such as millimeters, meters, inches, feet, etc.Cubic centimeters are a unit of volume, and can be converted to things like cubic inches, cubic feet, cubic meters, liters, gallons, etc.There are also square centimeters, which are units of area, and are convertible with square meters, square feet, acres, etc.it is just too easy
If you start at acres, you could shrink into miles, then shrink into square feet, then into meters, then into yards, into feet, into inches, and then finally to centimeters. However, there are things smaller than centimeters, which are millimeters, micrometers, and nanometers.
There are no centimeters in a square centimeter. A cm is a measure of distance while a sq cm is a measure of area. The two measure different things and it makes no sense to try to convert from one to the other.
Well, honey, .24 meters is equal to 24 centimeters. It's as simple as moving that decimal point over a smidge to convert meters to centimeters. So, now you know - 0.24 meters equals 24 centimeters. Hope that clears things up for ya!
