Two people are doing the same type and intensity of exercise. Their blood has the same oxygen concentration. The table shows their heart rates and the volume of blood pumped by the heart with each beat.
| Person | Heart rate (beats per minute) | Volume of blood pumped per beat (cm3) |
|---|---|---|
| A | 120 | 80 |
| B | 100 | 110 |
Calculate the volume of blood pumped by each person's heart per minute.
Using your answers, justify which person's working muscles receive more oxygen each minute.
