These figures are for plain dry breadcrumbs: 108 g a cup. Seasoned dry breadcrumbs weigh 120 g a cup. Soft fresh crumbs are far lighter, 45 g a cup, which is about 1½ slices of white sandwich bread. USDA's data lists no cup weight for panko.

Where this number comes from

USDA FoodData Central lists 1 cup of “Bread, crumbs, dry, grated, plain” at 108 g (FDC ID 174928, SR Legacy).

Everything else is worked out from that figure: spoons from 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons, and ounces and pounds from their exact definitions (1 oz = 28.349523125 g, 1 lb = 453.59237 g, NIST).
