Answer»

Right answer is (c) 1100-1200 ml

To EXPLAIN: On average, our kidneys FILTER 1100-1200 ml of blood every minute. This blood that is filtered PER minute constitutes for about 1/5^th of the total blood pumped out by each ventricle of the HEART in a minute. THEREFORE, we can say that the whole blood of our body gets filtered in approximately 5 minutes.
