Solution

The correct option is C 70
Renal blood flow (RBF) is the volume of blood delivered to the kidneys per unit time. Normally, the kidneys receive 1,000 to 1,250 ml/min of blood in the average adult, i.e about 60-75 L/hr. This amount far exceeds the need of intrinsic oxygen requirement of the kidney but ensures optimal clearance of all wastes and drugs.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
