Answer 1

To determine the increasing order of the prefixes based on their metric value, we need to understand the standard prefixes:

1. Deci (d) = 10^-1
2. Kilo (k) = 10^3
3. Mega (M) = 10^6
4. Giga (G) = 10^9
5. Terra (T) = 10^12

With this in mind, the correct increasing order from smallest to largest is:

- Deci (d, 10^-1)
- Kilo (k, 10^3)
- Mega (M, 10^6)
- Giga (G, 10^9)
- Terra (T, 10^12)

From the options provided, the correct order is found in:

**D) deci, Kilo, Mega, Giga, Terra**

This is the correct sequence in increasing order.
