please select the best answer from the choices provided.

Explanation:

Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated contractions against resistance for an extended period. Long - distance running involves continuous muscle contractions (especially in the leg muscles) over a long time, which helps in improving muscular endurance. High jumping (A) is more about explosive power. Sprinting (C) focuses on speed and anaerobic power. Throwing a fast ball (D) is more related to muscular strength and power in a short - burst activity.

Answer:

B. long distance running
