Best Answer

water. a gram is one milliliter of water. a milliliter is a cubic centimeter. in degrees Celsius 0 is freezing for water and 100 is boiling. a calorie is the energy it takes heat a milliliter/gram/cubic centimeter of water by 1 degree. so on and so on it is all based on water.

Answer

The units gram, litre, Celsius, and centimetre are not SI units. They are cgsA units which predates the SI system. The SI system is based on the mksA system, which has the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, candela, and mole as base units.

No SI unit is 'based on water'.
