Question

The volume of blood pumped by heart in one minute is called?

• A. Heart rate
• B. Systole
• C. Cardiac output
• D. Diastoles

Answer 1

The correct option is C Cardiac output

Cardiac output is the blood volume pumped in a minute by the core. It is equivalent to the rate of heart multiplied by the quantity of the stroke. So if there are 70 beats per minute and with each heart beat 70 ml of blood is drawn, the power production is 4900 ml / minute. This value is typical of an average resting adult, although during intense practice, cardiac production can achieve up to 30 liters / minute.
