AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) net weight. The net weight refers to the weight of the cargo or contents inside a box or container, excluding the weight of the container itself. This is the important measurement that needs to be accurately recorded on the cargo manifest, as it determines the actual load being transported.

D) light weight also refers to the empty weight of the container, not the contents.
