Solution

The correct option is B Millimetre
Different types of instruments are used to measure length. For example, ruler, metre tape of various lengths etc. The SI unit of length is a metre. For measuring small quantities we need smaller units like a millimetre, centimetre, decimeter etc. 1mm = 0.001 metres, thus millimetre is used for measuring the diameter of a screw.
