Exponents provide you a convenient way to represent or work with very large and very small numbers. In the microbiology field, scientists use exponents or a system called scientific notation to measure the length and weight of microscopic organisms such as virus and bacteria. The smallest metric unit, pico, is 0.000000000001 numerically and is expressed in scientific notation as

${10}^{ - 12}$

The biggest unit, tera, is 1000000000000 numerically and is expressed as

${10}^{12}$

And, the base unit (could be gram, meter, and liter), is 1 numerically and is expressed as

${10}^{0}$

As you can see, we use the concept of zero, negative, and positive exponents here. It is tiring to write numbers repeatedly. Scientific notation helps represent the numbers in a way that is easy to read and understand.

See the chart for more examples.

omandamarwin223 tama ba to kuya mizu?

mizu Hi omandamarwin223. I'm currently studying med lab so I provided it as an example. Of course, may iba pang example. Like, ginagamit din yung concept ng exponents sa engineering dahil palagi din nilang na-eencounter yung mga masyadong malalaki and maliliit na numbers. Exponent is used para mas madaling maintindihan.

omandamarwin223 ok

omandamarwin223 maraming salamat po Kuya mizu^/^

omandamarwin223 kuya mizu pakisagot po yung art kopo

omandamarwin223 explanations nalang ang kulang po kuya mizu
