a base unit is something that cannot be broken down further than it already is such as the Meter (m).
There are 7 SI (International system of units) units and these are:
Kilogram (kg)
Meter (m)
second (s)
Ampere (A)
Kelvin (K)
Candela (cd)
Mole (mol)
Base units are base units because you cannot derive them further like you can other things like speed, volts, energy etc.
Hope this helps (:
