Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Scientific units are the metric system used in science. It includes a chain of measuring units that are accepted by the scientific world. The unit is any standard used for making a comparison in the measurement. The basic units used in the metric system are meter, kilogram, second, and Kelvin. Scientific measurements are based on the metric system.

The item measured was not changing, so ideally everyone should have the same results, yet
many of you will have different results. These differences are most likely due to a source of
error known as measurement error or measurement variation. Measurement error refers to
differences in measurement of the same object, whether it is repetitive measurements by the
same person or measurements made by different people (or different instruments). Measurement
error is also sometimes referred to as human error. Human error must be eliminated as much as
possible in order to be able to see how much individual variation there is.
PREP
Give two specific sources of measurement error that occurred (or could have occurred) when
measuring your object. Simply saying "Human error" or "we measured differently" is too
general and thus is not an acceptable answer. Be specific in describing the sources of error.
