The metric, or more correctly the SI system is made up of seven base units.
Length:- metre
Mass:- kilogram
Time:- second
Temperature:- kelvin
Electric current:- ampere
Luminous intensity:- candela
Amount of substance:- mole
Other units are derived from these seven.

Time: second (s)
Length: metre (m) (US spelling: meter)
Mass: kilogram (kg)
Temperature: degrees Celsius (°C)
Electrical current: ampere (A)
Volume: litre (L)
Note: The kelvin (K) is technically the base unit of temperature and has the same magnitude as degrees Celsius, but °C is more commonly used. The conversion factor is: 0 °C = 273.15 K
Note 2: The litre is a technically a derived unit, but is very common. It is defined based on the volume of a cube with 10 cm sides. It is equal to 1000 cm³ (cubic centimetres), or 0.001 m³ (cubic metres)
The three basic units of metric length are millimeter (mm), centimeter (cm), and meter (m).
Three metric units of measurements, millimetres (mm), centimetres (cm), metres (m).
A litre, which is used for measuring the volume of liquid. A kilometre, which measures distance. A kilogram, which measures weight.
Another example of a metric system would be the Arabic metric System, Roman Numbers because these numerals use different characters for their numbers and letters etc.
Centimetre - CM - 1/100th of a Metre
Metre - M - 1/1000th of a Kilometre - 100 CM
Kilometre - KM - 1000 M - 60% of a mile

The basic unit of length in the metric system is the meter (m). Other common units used for length measurement include centimeters (cm) and kilometers (km).
metre - length/distance litre-volume kilogram-mass
The three base units in the metric system are the meter for length, the kilogram for mass, and the second for time.
Some of them are centimeter,deka,gram,meter,kilometer,millimeter.
