A
gross weight
B
rate weight
C
net weight
D

AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) net weight. The net weight refers to the weight of the cargo itself, without the weight of the container or packaging. This is the important figure that needs to be recorded on the cargo manifest, as it represents the actual weight of the goods being transported. The other options are incorrect because: A) Gross weight includes the weight of the container/packaging, not just the cargo. B) Rate weight is not a standard term used for cargo manifests. D) Light weight refers to the empty weight of a vehicle, not the weight of cargo.
