Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. A standard unit is a basic unit of measurement which can be acceptable by all. Example Centimeters, Meters etc.
  2. SI is used in the most places around the world, so our use of it allows scientists from disparate regions to use a single standard in communicating scientific data without vocabulary confusion
  3. Non-standard units like cubits vary from person to person, that's why they are not considered.

Hence the given statement is true.
