The prefix that will multiply the unit by 1,000 is c. Kilo.

The prefix "kilo" will multiply the unit by 1,000.

To arrive at this answer, you need to understand the metric system prefixes and their respective multipliers.

The metric system uses prefixes to indicate different multiples or fractions of a base unit.

In this case, we are looking for a prefix that will multiply the unit by 1,000.

The prefix "milli" represents a multiplier of 1/1,000, so it is not the correct answer.

The prefix "mega" represents a multiplier of 1,000,000, so it is also incorrect.

The prefix "centi" represents a multiplier of 1/100, so it is not the answer we are looking for.

Finally, the prefix "kilo" represents a multiplier of 1,000. So the correct answer is "c. Kilo".
