Question

An adult, who weighs about 160 lbs, would have this amount of blood in their body.

A) 25 quarts B) 25 pints C) 5 quarts D) 6.5 pints

Answer 1

It's C or D I think, but read the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientists estimate the volume of blood in a human to be approximately 7 percent of body weight. An average adult with a weight of 150 to 180 pounds will contain approximately 1.2 to 1.5 gallons (4.7 to 5.5 liters) of blood

1.5 gallons=6 quarts, 12 pints,

1.2 gallons=4.8 quarts, 9.6 pints

Hope this helps!
