Question

which of the following is not a benefit of cardiorespiratory fitness? a. more blood is pumped through the body. b. the risk of cardiovascular disease is decreased. c. longer durations of large muscle exercises are possible. d. the efficiency of the respiratory system increases. please select the best answer from the choices provided. a b c d

Explanation:

Cardiorespiratory fitness enhances heart, lung, and circulatory function. Benefits include decreased cardiovascular disease risk (B), longer exercise endurance (C), and improved respiratory efficiency (D). "More blood pumped" (A) is not a direct benefit; fitness improves pumping efficiency (e.g., higher stroke volume, lower heart rate) rather than simply increasing total blood volume pumped.

Answer:

A. More blood is pumped through the body.
