Step 1: Convert 1.43 pounds to grams:
1.43 pounds x 453.6 g/pound = 648.29 g

Step 2: Convert 1.00 L of homogenized milk to grams:
1.00 L x 1.03 g/mL = 1030 g

Step 3: Add the weight of the empty jar to the weight of the milk:
648.29 g + 1030 g = 1678.29 g

Step 4: Convert the total weight to pounds:
1678.29 g ÷ 453.6 g/pound = 3.70 pounds

Therefore, the jar will weigh 3.70 pounds when filled with 1.00 L of homogenized milk. The answer is D.
