Concept:Derived units are obtained by combining fundamental units.Explanation:Fundamental units are the basic units of measurement. Examples include:Kilogram ($\mathrm{kg}$) for mass, metre ($\mathrm{m}$) for length, and second ($\mathrm{s}$) for time.Derived units are formed from fundamental units. Newton is the unit of force.Force equals mass times acceleration.So, $1\ \mathrm{N} = 1\ \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{m/s}^2$.Therefore, Newton is a derived unit.Answer:C. Newton
