Question
What is the importance of maintaining the standard units?
Short Note
Solution
The maintenance of standard units is essential because any variation in these standards would lead to wrong measurements, misleading results, and confusing generalizations. The standards are preserved in such a way that they do not undergo any change with the change in temperature, pressure, humidity, and other environmental changes.
