inner lining of the heart
A
pericardium
B
endocardium
C
myocardium
D
epicardium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The endocardium is the innermost layer of the heart. It lines the inner surfaces of the heart chambers, including the heart valves. The endocardium has two layers. The inner layer lines the heart chambers and is made of endothelial cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The endocardium is lined by endothelial cells, which modulate many aspects of normal hemostasis. In normal states, the endothelial cells are antithrombotic, preventing circulating cells from attaching and thus allowing normal flow of blood through the heart and blood vessels.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endocardium is the thin inner lining of the heart chambers and also forms the surface of the valves. Myocardium is the thick middle layer of muscle that allows your heart chambers to contract and relax to pump blood to your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Abstract. Endocardial cells are specialized endothelial cells that, during embryogenesis, form a lining on the inside of the developing heart, which is maintained throughout life.

Detailed explanation-5: -The endocardium is the innermost layer of tissue that lines the chambers of the heart. Its cells are embryologically and biologically similar to the endothelial cells that line blood vessels. The endocardium also provides protection to the valves and heart chambers.
