how much does a heart weigh
A human heart weighs about 10 ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound. Do the math to compare its size to a whale heartâdonât worry, it isnât hard: 16 ounces in a pound, so 400 pounds is 6400 ounces. (400*16) Now divide that by 10, the weight of a human heart.
The weight of the average human heart is 10-12 ounces for a male and 8-10 ounces for a female. The weight increases with age and is especially noticeable in males. Man heart weight = 300g. Female heart weight = 200g.
The average adult heart is about the size of a clenched fist and weighs about 11 ounces (310 grams).. The heart is a relatively small (no bigger than a clenched fist), hollow, muscular organ which is in charge of pumping blood throughout the body and to other organs. Adult male-300-310 grams. Adult female-250-260 grams.
