About these units
Cubic Millimeter (mm³)
A cubic millimeter is the volume of a cube exactly 1 millimeter on each side, equal to 10⁻⁹ cubic meters or 0.001 milliliters. It is a very small volume, frequently used in medical imaging, microfluidics, materials science, and cell biology. In anatomy and radiology, tissue or tumor volumes are often quantified in cubic millimeters to express small but clinically significant structures. In engineering, mm³ can describe the displacement of precision components or the volume of micro-machined cavities. Microfluidic research—where entire laboratories are miniaturized onto chips—depends heavily on mm³ and smaller units, as channels and chambers hold extremely tiny volumes. Its precision scale makes it invaluable for applications requiring meticulous material control.
Homer (Biblical) (homer)
The homer, equivalent to the cor, served as the foundational large-scale volume unit in Biblical Hebrew society. Its name derives from a term meaning "load" or "donkey-load," reinforcing its use as a practical, transportable measure. Divided into 10 baths, the homer formed part of a hierarchical system that allowed easy transitions between large and small quantities. The unit's frequent appearance in the books of Ezekiel and Leviticus highlights its importance in religious offerings and economic exchanges.
