The correct answer is Cubic.

Therefore, the crystal system present in diamond is Cubic. The diamond structure consists of carbon atoms tetrahedrally bonded to four other carbon atoms. This creates a strong, rigid three-dimensional network, which explains diamond's extreme hardness and high thermal conductivity. The diamond structure can be viewed as two interpenetrating face-centered cubic lattices, shifted relative to each other along the body diagonal.
