D Correct answer
Explanation

The MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system uses joule as the standard unit for energy, work, and heat. One joule is defined as the work done by a force of one newton acting through a distance of one meter. Volt measures electric potential, erg is the CGS unit of energy, and ohm measures electrical resistance.
