About Milligram (mg)
A metric unit of mass equal to one thousandth of a gram (0.001 g), or one millionth of a kilogram. Milligrams are the standard unit for pharmaceutical dosing (e.g., a 500 mg aspirin tablet), vitamin and supplement labeling, and trace analytical chemistry. Medication orders, nutritional micronutrient values (sodium, caffeine), and environmental pollutant concentrations are almost universally quoted in milligrams because the unit matches the scale at which active compounds act on the human body.
About Metric Ton (t)
A metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms (or roughly 2,205 pounds). The metric ton — also called "tonne" in international English — is the global commodity unit for bulk shipping, industrial manufacturing, agricultural yield (wheat, soybeans, steel), and CO₂ emissions reporting. It should not be confused with the US short ton (2,000 lb ≈ 907 kg) or UK long ton (2,240 lb ≈ 1,016 kg), which still appear in US and some British contexts respectively.
