Answer:

C. cubic centimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

C. Cubic centimeter (cm³) measures volume, which is how much space something takes up in 3D. This can be the volume of a cube or how much water a cup can hold. The volume of a prism is calculated by multiplying three lengths. (cm X cm X cm)

A. Gram is a measurement unit for mass, which is the number of particles in an object (non-scientifically referred to as how heavy something is).

B. Centimeter (cm) measures length, which is how long something is. This might be how long a string is or how long one side of a shape is.

D. Square centimeter (cm²) measures area, which is how much space is inside a flat 2D object. This can be drawing a square on a piece of paper, or for one flat face of a 3D shape. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying two lengths. (cm X cm)
