Comparison of sizes of semiconductor manufacturing process nodes with some microscopic objects and visible light wavelengths. At this scale, the width of a human hair is about 10 times that of the image.
The silk for a spider's web is [convert: %s]%s wide
Fog particles are around [convert: %s]%s long.
A paramecium is around 300 µm (0.012 in) long.
An average red ant is about 5 mm (0.20 in) long.
