Question

• A. 200 ml
• B. 100 ml
• C. 50 ml
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A 200 ml

The spleen is the largest lymphoid organ which is located under the ribcage and above the stomach in the abdomen. On an average, an adult human body contains 5.6 liters of blood out of which nearly 200ml blood can be stored in the spleen and released in cases of hypovolemia(low blood volume) and hypoxia (low oxygen levels).

So, the correct answer is ' 200ml '.
