No, not all metric units are part of the International System of Units (SI). The SI is a coherent system of units derived from the metric system, but it is more specific and defined, and not all metric units are included in the SI.
The base unit of length in the metric system is the meter (m). Other common units of length in the metric system include centimeter (cm) and kilometer (km).
The "metric system", more precisely the SI, has lots of units, depending on what you want to measure. Check the Wikipedia article on "SI units" for a list.
There are many systems. A system is a collection of units which are used together. The two commonest are the SI units, based on the metric system, and imperial units (feet, pounds etc.)
Metric is considered more practical than customary units because it is based on powers of ten, which makes conversions between units easier. Metric units are also used universally across most countries, making it easier to communicate measurements internationally. Additionally, the metric system is more consistent and logical in its base units compared to the various units and systems used in the customary system.

The kilogram is the SI base unit of mass and is equal to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram.In metric System there are many units to measure the mass of the objects like pounds, gm, lbs, kg,etc.

Lots, but most people use only the Metric System.
Metric system simply refers to a system of measurement in which the values are decimalized (i.e. one unit differs from another by a power of 10). The metric system commonly used in the world today is referred to by many scientists as "SI" which is short for Systeme International d'Unites, French for International System of Units.

The metric, or SI, system has seven base units, from these seven all other units are derived. Length- metre (m). Time- second (s). Mass- kilogram (kg). Temperature- kelvin (K). Electric current- ampere (A). Luminous intensity- candela (cd). Amount of substance- mole (mol).
