Centimorgan (cM): A unit of measure of genetic recombination frequency. One cM is equal to a 1% chance that a marker at one genetic locus will be separated from a marker at another locus due to crossing over in a single generation. In humans, 1 cM is equivalent, on average, to 1 million base pairs. The centimorgan is named after the pioneering (and Nobel Prize winning) geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan.
One teaspoon of liquid equals 5 ml, meaning 1 ml equals one-fifth of a teaspoon. There are 1,000 ml in one liter of liquid. The smallest quantity of liquid in the metric system is one milliliter, usually written as 1 ml, which is a thousandth of a liter. A liter is the base measure of liquid and is the equivalent of 32 fluid ounces, one quart or about four cups. One cup of liquid is about 250 ml. Dry quantities vary from liquid quantities in the metric system and are measured in grams and kilograms.
