Solution

The correct option is B

70 ml


In a normal healthy adult, the heart beats 60-100 times in a minute. With each beat, the heart pumps 70 millilitres of blood out of the heart. It can move 5 to 7 litres of blood in one minute and 7600 litres per day. Hence about 70 ml of blood is pumped into the arteries during each heartbeat.
