Best Answer

the metric system is based on 1 cc of water weighing 1 gram

Correction

cc is not an acceptable metric symbol; a cubic centimetre is cm3

Nothing can "weigh" 1 gram - it's not a unit of weight

though an object may have a mass of 1 g.

The question seems to ask for any unit of weight measurement in "the standard measurement system" without defining what is meant.

A metric weight unit is the newton, assuming "the standard measurement system" is SI. In the "standard" US measurement system a weight unit is a pound.
