25 kg cement bag

Defined example; real examples vary. The 25 kg mass is an explicit assumption, not a species average or product specification.

Defined examples — our methodology

The marked mass is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

Human

A defined adult standing 1.75 m tall with a mass of 70 kg. This is a consistent comparison specimen, not a global average or health benchmark.
