Explanation

Among the four choices, the kilobyte (KB) is the smallest unit of storage. The storage hierarchy from smallest to largest is: Kilobyte (KB) → Megabyte (MB) → Gigabyte (GB) → Terabyte (TB) → Petabyte (PB). A kilobyte is approximately 1,000 bytes (or exactly 1,024 bytes in binary). While bits and bytes are smaller than a kilobyte, they are not among the answer choices, so kilobyte is the correct selection here.
