Answer 2

The heart beat rate is 70beats/minute with 80ml of blood pumped every beat. Then, the volume of blood your heart pumps in one minute would be:

volume of blood per minute= volume per beat * beat per minute
volume of blood per minute= 80ml/beat * 70beat/minute= 560ml/ minute

volume of blood per hour would be: 560ml/minute * 60 minute/hour= 33.600 ml/hour
