100 milligrams
The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.
Honeybee
A 15 mm worker honeybee (Apis mellifera), at the upper end of the cited 10–15 mm worker range. Body length excludes antennae, legs and wings. The 100 mg mass is a separate illustrative assumption.
Defined examples — our methodology
The marked mass is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

- Comparing
- Mass ↔ Mass
- Relative size
- The two selected measurements are approximately equal.
How to read the visual
The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.
- Honeybee is labelled example; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
