A less dramatic but still significant depletion of. ozone levels was recorded around the globe. With less. ozone in the atmosphere, more ultraviolet (UV) radia-. tion strikes Earth, causing more skin cancer, eye dam-. age, and possible harm to crops.
There are 1.0E-6 meter in a micrometer. 1 Micrometer is equal to 1.0E-6 Meter. 1 um = 1.0E-6 m. A micrometer, or micron, is a unit of length sometimes used in SI as a 1Ã10â6 of a meter. This is a quite specific measurement unit used in science (i.e. for measuring various types of wavelength, etc.) or in industrial technology.
Micrometre is 1 millionth of a meter, 1 thousandths of a milimeter (mm), or 1 x 10-6 meters. To give you the idea of how small a micro metre is, a human hair is about 100 Âµm, wide, and a red blood cell would be around 8 Âµm wide, the typical size of an animal cell would be from 10 - 100 Âµm.NSWER Generally in Science, you would use the Metric system of measurement. Therefore, when talking about cells and microscopic organisms, you would be measuring using MICROMETRE (abbreviated: Âµ --micron) or stated as: Âµm (micro metre).
