In a typical heart, if EDV is 120 mL of blood and ESV is 50 mL of blood, the stroke volume (SV) is

  1. A 120-50=70 mL
  2. B 120+50=170mL
  3. C 120×50=6000 ml
  4. D 120\(\div\)50=2.4 mL

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 120-50=70 mL

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) 120-50=70 mL,
The stroke volume (SV) is the volume of blood ejected from the ventricles of the heart with each beat. It is calculated by subtracting the end-systolic volume (ESV) from the end-systolic volume (ESV) from the end-diastolic volume (EDV). Here, SV=EDV-ESV-12mL-50mL-70 mL..
