Q

— is the measure of the amount of blood pumped by the heart every minute while — is the amount of blood ejected from the heart in the single contraction?

A
  • cardiac output (The average cardiac output is 5 L of blood pumped by the heart per minute)
  • stroke volume (roughly on an average of 70 mL)
