Bar length measures mass, not physical size.

A little perspective

The mass of 250 grams and the defined whole-root mass of Sweet potato are approximately the same.

Measurements, assumptions & sources +

250 grams

The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.

NIST — SI conversion factors

Sweet potato

A defined whole sweet-potato storage root 15 cm long and 250 g. Cultivar and growing conditions vary; the tapered root body is measured without fine roots, leaves or cut surfaces.

USDA FoodData Central — raw fruit portions

The marked defined whole-root mass is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

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.

  • Sweet potato uses a 250 g central value within a recorded range of 150 g–450 g.
  • Sweet potato is labelled defined specimen; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
  • The recorded ranges overlap, so the ordering can vary even though the central values differ.
