Read the passage and answer the following questions.
The functional declines of advancing age are depressing. The heart's ability to pump blood drops about one per cent blood flow to arms and legs decreases by thirty to forty per cent in old age. The amount of air a person can exhale after a deep breath lessens and the chest wall stiffens with age. However, recent studies have shown that most of these age-associated declines can be delayed by exercise. Exercise lowers the resting heart rate and increases the amount of blood pumped with each beat in older people. When stress is placed on bones through exercise, calcium content rises, with the result that resistance to fracture is improved.
The strength of bones can be increased by exercise because it
increases the amount of blood pumped by the heart.
increases calcium content in bones.
increases the amount of air exhaled by a person.
lessens the stiffness of the chest wall.

The chest wall becomes stiff in old age, because
the heart's ability to pump blood to it drops about one per cent
the blood flow to various organs-decreases
the resting heart-rate becomes high
the person's ability to exhale sufficient air lessens
