Final answer:

To convert 370 mm³ to liters, you divide by 1,000,000, resulting in a volume of 3.7×10⁻´ liters, which is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a volume from cubic millimeters to liters, we need to understand the relationship between these units of measurement. There are 1,000 cubic centimeters in a liter, and a cubic centimeter is equivalent to a cubic millimeter. Therefore, to convert cubic millimeters to liters, we divide the number of cubic millimeters by 1,000,000 (since there are 1,000 cubic centimeters in a liter and 1,000 millimeters in a cubic centimeter).

Given the volume of cobra venom as 370 mm³, we divide it by 1,000,000 to convert it to liters:

Volume in liters = γ70 mm³ / 1,000,000 = 3.7×10⁻´ liters

Thus, the answer is 3.7×10⁻´ liters, which corresponds to option A.
