The metric system is an alternative system of measurement used in most countries, as well as in the United States. The metric system is based on joining one of a series of prefixes, including kilo-, hecto-, deka-, deci-, centi-, and milli-, with a base unit of measurement, such as meter, liter, or gram.

I think litre for capacity is the correct answer as length is measured in foot or inches, weight is measured in quintal etc in building construction.
