Answer
Considering my weight as 60kg,
Volume of blood in my body: 4800-5100mL
Weight of blood present in my body is 4.8kg
Work Step by Step
(Considering my body weight is 60kg)
In a healthy person,
Volume of blood/body weight : 80-85mL/kg of body weight
For 1kg of body weight, the minimum volume of blood present is 80mL
For 60kg,
( $80\times60=4800$ )
the minimum of 4800mL is present
For 1kg of body weight, the maximum volume of blood present is 85mL
For 60kg,
( $80\times65=5100$ )
the maximum amount of blood present is 5100mL
Therefore, the volume of blood present in my body is 4800-5100mL
As given(in Table 18.1),
Weight of blood is 8% of the total body weight
So,
$\frac{8}{100}\times60=4.8$
Therefore, the weight of my blood is 4.8kg
