Question

Assume similar data for the motion of the blood in a carotid artery which connects the aorta to the brain. Estimate how many beats of the heart it will it take the blood to get from your aorta to your brain. (Assume that the distance from your aorta to your brain is 30 cm.)

Answer 1

4 beats

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of beats of the heart that will take blood from Aorta to The Brain

n = Distance from Aorta to brain / distance per beat

Given that distance per beat = 7.5 cm ( calculated value outside scope of question using the data attached below)

n = 30 cm / 7.5 cm

= 4 beats
