How transcribe 1 cm appearing mass?

I would type it - 1 cm-appearing mass

IIRC... - petite.moi

...per the convoluted BOS 3, units such as cc,cm, kg, etc. are not to be hyphenated (which is incorrect), while pounds, tons, etc. are.

of course, account specifics take precedence.

1-cm-appearing mass - deenibeeni

like "6-foot-tall patient."
