On a beautiful sunny day, a man went for jogging and climbed few stairs in the park. His heart starts beating 95 times per minute. In left ventricle, the volume of blood at the end of ventricular systole is 60  mL60 \,\mathrm{~mL} whereas the volume of blood at the end of ventricular diastole was 140  mL140 \,\mathrm{~mL}. What is the cardiac output in this person?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
7600  mL/min7600\, \mathrm{~mL} / \mathrm{min}
Option D (7600  mL/min7600\, \mathrm{~mL} / \mathrm{min}) is correct because stroke volume is the difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes (140 mL - 60 mL = 80 mL). Cardiac output is stroke volume multiplied by heart rate, so cardiac output = 80 mL/beat * 95 beats/min = 7600 mL/min.
