    The correct answer is: Option (D) Human body

    Explanation:

    Measurements were first based on the parts of human body. For example the old Eygptian "cubit" was the unit of length. It was measured by using the forearm.

    1 cubit = The length from the elbow of the forearm to the tip of the middle finger.

    In a nutshell, it is the human body that was used as the reference to measure things up.
