The SI has 7 base units. These units can be combined in an almost unlimited way to form other (derived) units. The Wikipedia article on "SI derived units" lists some examples.

How many units are in the SI system and can i see them?

The SI has 7 base units: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit Also, the SI has tens of derived units - perhaps hundreds of them, since you can combine the base units in many ways. Those units are ultimately derived from the 7 base units. For example, units for area, volume, speed, force, energy, pressure, electric charge, voltage, and many more, are derived from some of the base units. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit
