Facts about the Milliliter
The milliliter is a metric unit of volume equal to one-thousandth (1/1000) of a liter or one cubic centimeter (cm³).
Derived from the metric system’s base-10 structure, the milliliter was introduced to standardize small volume measurements in science and medicine.
Used extensively in medical dosing, cooking measurements, cosmetics, and lab experiments for precise liquid quantities.
