C. Carbon monoxide

D. Nitrogen

Explanation / Answer

1. D

Cardiovascular drift is described as the physiological changes during the prolonged exercise. During prolonged exercise, stroke volume steadily drops and the heart rate increases. Cardiac output is a function of stroke volume times heart rate. Therefore, cardiac output may remain constant during prolonged exercise despite the increase in heart rate due to compensation from a drop in stroke volume.

Therefore neither of the option A or B is correct
