Measurements, assumptions & sources +
Mango
A defined medium mango 14 cm long using a 336 g whole-fruit reference mass. Cultivar and ripeness vary; the stem and leaf are excluded from calibrated fruit length.
USDA FoodData Central — raw fruit portions
The marked defined fruit length is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
Human brain
A defined adult-brain specimen 15 cm front to back and 1.4 kg. Brain size and mass vary by person; these values are comparison anchors, not health benchmarks.
Defined examples — our methodology
The marked representative front-to-back length is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

Why we use 14 cm
For comparison, this page uses defined fruit length. This is labelled defined specimen: an explicit comparison model rather than a claim that every example has the same value. The recorded range is 10 cm to 18 cm.
