    The correct answer is gram (g).

    Explanation:

    The metric system uses grams (g) as the fundamental unit of measurement of mass. This system applies the idea that units increase and decrease by a power of 10. This means that a kilogram (kg) is 1000 times heavier than a gram (g), and a gram is 1000 times heavier than a milligram (mg).

    Have a nice day!
