Answer :

Sure! Let's break down the question and analyze each option.

The term "cc" stands for cubic centimeter. It measures volume and is commonly used in medical settings, such as with syringes.

We need to determine which of the given units is equivalent to one cubic centimeter (cc). Here's a detailed analysis of each option:

A. T (tablespoon): A tablespoon is a unit of volume commonly used in cooking. One tablespoon is equivalent to approximately 15 cubic centimeters (cc), so this option is incorrect.

B. ml (milliliter): A milliliter is also a unit of volume, and by definition, one milliliter (ml) is exactly equal to one cubic centimeter (cc). Therefore, this option is correct.

C. tsp. (teaspoon): A teaspoon is another unit of volume typically used in cooking. One teaspoon equals about 5 cubic centimeters (cc), making this option incorrect.

D. kl (kiloliter): A kiloliter is a much larger unit of volume. One kiloliter is equivalent to 1,000,000 cubic centimeters (cc), which makes this option incorrect.

Based on this analysis, the correct answer is:
B. ml (milliliter)
ktreyb

Answer:

Option B, mL (milliliter)

Explanation:

1 cubic centimeter (cc) in a syringe is the equivalent to 1 milliliter (mL).

This equivalency is one reason healthcare is beginning to discontinue the use of cc as a measurement in practice. Syringes are marked by mL, medications are measured in mL, and mL is an easier unit to communicate to patients who can return demonstrate understanding than cc.  

For example, household cabinets may have bismuth subsalicylate (e.g. Pepto-Bismol) or guaifenesin (e.g. Robitussin) and the plastic cup that accompanies. The cup has line that measure the content in mL rather than cc. Because of its common household use, patients may comprehend mL as a unit of measurement much better than imagining, say, 30 centimeters cubed of medication.

1 teaspoon (tsp) is equivalent to 5 cc or 5 mL.
1 tablespoon (usually abbreviated to Tbsp instead of a capital letter T as to not be confused with the metric prefix tera-) is equivalent to 15 cc or 15 mL.
1 kiloliter (kL) is equivalent to 1,000 liters (L), which is 1 million mL or 1 million cc.

So, 1 cc is exactly the same as 1 mL, option B.
