B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The heart gets messages from the body that tell it when to pump more or less blood depending on a person’s needs. For example, when we’re sleeping, it pumps just enough to provide for the lower amounts of oxygen needed by our bodies at rest.

Detailed explanation-2: -During exercise, your heart typically beats faster so that more blood gets out to your body. Your heart can also increase its stroke volume by pumping more forcefully or increasing the amount of blood that fills the left ventricle before it pumps.

Detailed explanation-3: -The purpose of your heart is to pump blood to the organs and tissues of your body that need the oxygen and nutrients it carries. Oxygen-rich blood is pumped out of the left side of your heart (shown on the right in the diagram) into the arteries to these tissues and organs.
