In the SI system, the base unit of length is the meter, the base unit of mass is the kilogram, and the base unit of time is the second. The base unit of electrical current is the ampere which is defined in terms of the force between parallel, current-carrying conductors.
One of a set of unrelated units of measurement, which are arbitrarily defined and from which other units are derived. For example, in the SI system the fundamental units are the meter, kilogram, and second.

What are the fundamental quantities?
The fundamental units are those of the SI system - The unit of Temperature, Kelvin; of Time, the second; of Mass, Kilogram; of brightness, the Candela; of physical quantity, the Mole; and of electrical current, the Ampere. With these units, all fundamental quantities may be described.Comment SI doesn't use the term, 'fundamental'. Those units listed above are termed 'base' units.
What are supplementary units of SI system?
the units that has not been assigned either to the fundamental units or to derived units.
Why is it important to have clearly defined quantities and units in measurement?
Because.... There are two types of physical quantities. Fundamental and derived. Fundamental units cannot be derived from any of the two types of units while derived units can be derived from these two types of units. It's important to be clearly defined as there are so many indices of the base number. And no one can derive the units if they aren't properly defined
What are the basic units of life?
Cell..... cell is known as the basic and fundamental unit of life...
What are the Units accepted according to the international system are called?
The three fundamental measurements are length, mass, and time. The fundamental Standard International units, therefore, are meters, kilograms, and seconds. These are also known as SI base units.
What are the fundamental units of living organisms?
cells are the fundamental units of living organisms.
What are combination of fundamental units called?
derived units
What are the two kinds of units?
They can be classified into fundamental units and derived units.
The units derived from fundamental units are called?
Those are called derived units.
Why are derived units more complex than fundamental units?
Derived units is obtained from a combination of fundamental units. Derived unit is a cubic centimeter or a cube that is a centimeter on each side.
What are the units of fundamental units?
Genes are the fundamental units of inheritance. Genes hold the information to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic traits to offspring.
How many fundamental units are there?
there are seven
Is FT a fundamental or derived unit?
FT is a derived unit and not a fundamental unit. The fundamental unit cannot be broken down into different forms. The derived units on the other hand are made up of the fundamental units.
Fundamental unit of heredity is called?
The fundamental units of heredity are called genes.
Why length is fundamental unit?
Length is fundamental because space is fundamental and relates two other fundamental units energy and force.
