<reasoning>

Identify the metric units and their values in meters

Using the Measurement Systems knowledge point
\[

$$\begin{aligned} \text{millimeter (mm)} &= 10^{-3}\text{ m} = 0.001\text{ m} \\ \text{centimeter (cm)} &= 10^{-2}\text{ m} = 0.01\text{ m} \\ \text{meter (m)} &= 10^{0}\text{ m} = 1\text{ m} \\ \text{kilometer (km)} &= 10^{3}\text{ m} = 1000\text{ m} \end{aligned}$$

\]

Order the units from smallest to greatest

\[
0.001\text{ m} < 0.01\text{ m} < 1\text{ m} < 1000\text{ m}
\]
\[
\text{millimeter} < \text{centimeter} < \text{meter} < \text{kilometer}
\]

Match with the given options

\[
\text{Option c: millimeter, centimeter, meter, kilometer}
\]
