The metric system is an international system of measurement based on units of ten. It includes standardized units for length, which is meter, for mass, which is gram, for volume, which is liter, for temperature, which is Celsius, and other physical quantities. The metric system provides a simple and consistent framework for measuring and comparing quantities across different contexts and disciplines. It is widely used around the world in scientific research, engineering, industry, commerce, and everyday life.

A milliliter is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to one-thousandth of a liter. It is commonly abbreviated as "mL." Milliliters are used to measure small volumes of liquids or solutions, such as medications, beverages, and chemicals. Milliliters are widely used in various fields, including healthcare, chemistry, and food and beverage industry, due to their precision and ease of measurement.

A quart is a unit of volume measurement commonly used in the United States to measure liquids. It is abbreviated as "qt." In the US customary system, one liquid quart is equal to 32 fluid ounces or approximately 946.353 milliliters. Quarts are commonly used to measure larger volumes of liquids such as milk, water, juice, and other beverages.

In the United States, a fluid dram is a unit of volume measurement primarily used in the field of pharmacy and medicine. It is abbreviated as "fl dr." One fluid dram is equal to approximately 3.696 milliliters or 1/8 of a US fluid ounce. Fluid drams are commonly used for measuring small volumes of liquid medications or solutions, particularly in situations where precise dosing is necessary. While the fluid dram is not as commonly encountered in everyday usage as other units of volume measurement, it remains an important unit of measurement in the healthcare industry for accurate dosing and administration of medications.

In the United States, the gill is a unit of volume measurement primarily used in historical contexts and in some specialized fields. It is rarely used in modern-day applications, and its usage is not widespread. One US gill is equal to a quarter of a US liquid pint, approximately 4 fluid ounces or 118.294 milliliters. While the gill was once a common measurement for liquids, particularly in the beverage industry, it has largely been replaced by other units such as fluid ounces and liters.

In the United States, a minim, "min", is a unit of volume measurement primarily used in pharmacy and medicine. It is defined as 1/60th of a US fluid dram or approximately 0.0616115 milliliters. Minims are commonly used for measuring very small quantities of liquid medications or solutions, particularly in formulations where precise dosing is required.

The British Imperial System, also known simply as the Imperial System, is a system of units for measurement that was historically used in the United Kingdom and its former colonies. It includes various units of measurement for length, mass, volume, and other physical quantities. Common units include the inch, foot, yard, and mile for length, the pound, stone, and ton for mass, and the gallon for volume. While the Imperial System was once widely used in the past, many countries, including the UK, have transitioned to the metric system for most purposes. However, elements of the Imperial System are still used in some contexts, particularly in the UK for road signs and colloquial expressions, and in certain industries such as agriculture and construction.
