Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the units involved: 1 cc stands for 1 cubic centimeter, which is a unit of volume.
Recall the relationship between cubic centimeters and milliliters: 1 cubic centimeter (cc) is exactly equal to 1 milliliter (mL).
Recognize that this equivalence is commonly used in clinical measurements, especially for fluids like blood.
Compare the given options to this equivalence: 0.1 mL is less than 1 cc, 1 L is much larger, and 10 mL is larger as well.
Conclude that 1 cc of blood represents a volume of 1 mL based on the direct unit equivalence.
