It equals 20% of cardiac output Cardiac Output = 5 L/min so renal blood flow is 1 L/min
The renal fraction is the percentage of cardiac output that passes through the kidneys. It averages about 21%.
Cardiac edema is caused by heart failure leading to fluid accumulation in the lungs or extremities, while renal edema is due to impaired kidney function resulting in fluid retention throughout the body. Cardiac edema often presents with shortness of breath and swollen ankles, while renal edema can manifest as generalized swelling and decreased urine output. Treatment for cardiac edema focuses on managing heart failure, while renal edema requires addressing the underlying kidney dysfunction.

The blood supply to the kidneys is from the left and right renal arteries, which branch directly from the abdominal aorta. The kidneys receive approximately 20% of cardiac output despite making up only about 0.5% of bodyweight.
True
It isn't clear what you want to calculate. Add fractions? Multiply them? Convert fraction to decimal? Decimal to fraction? The details of the calculations, of course, vary depending on what you want to calculate.
yes
Renal circulation, receiving about 20% of cardiac output, branches from the abdominal aorta and returns to the ascending vena cava. Hepatic circulation is the system of veins made of the hepatic portal vein and its tributaries.
Given the renal arteries receive 25% of cardiac output, it would probably not take very long.
