Units of Measurement: CSIR GATE NET JRF study material

`












If you already attened exams like CSIR, ICMR, GATE, DBT NET JRF you will always come across questions about units of measurement like how you measure Current, Bel represent what, etc. Here we collected most of the Units and measurement commonly asked in the biology entrance exam.
