Question

What is the amount of blood filtered by the kidney within a minute ?
a) 1200 ml
b) 1600 ml
c) 600 ml
d) 800 ml​

Answer 1

Answer:

about 1200 mL per minute

Explanation:

The total volume of blood passing through the kidneys is about 1200 mL per minute or about one-fourth of the entire cardiac output.

As plasma passes through the glomerulus, it loses more than 10% of its volume to the glomerular filtrate.
