Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ejection fraction represents the percentage of blood pumped out of the ventricle during each contraction. In this case, the ejection fraction is 35%, meaning only 35% of the blood in the ventricle is being pumped out with each heartbeat. Therefore, the blood pumped by the ventricle is only 35%. The heart rate and blood pressure do not directly affect the ejection fraction or the amount of blood being pumped out of the ventricle.
