Show transcribed image text The average adult heart pumps about 84. mL/s of blood at 72 beats per minute. Suppose you need to calculate how long it would take the average heart to circulate 5300. mL of blood. Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression.
With the average heart rate of 72 beats per minute the heart will pump about 5 litres per ventricle, or about 10 litres total per minute. This is called the cardiac output. In a trained athlete the total cardiac output is about 20 litres. If we multiply the normal, non-athlete output by the average age of 70 years, we see that the cardiac output of the average human heart over a life time would be about 1 million litres, or about 250,000 gallons(US)!
