Most modern scientists use the International System of Units (SI), which is the modern form of the metric system. It is based on seven base units, such as the meter for length, kilogram for mass, and second for time, and provides a standardized way of measuring physical quantities.
The next smallest prefix from milli- is micro-. Milli- denotes thousandths, micro- denotes millionths.
