Explanation:

First Question:

Playing basketball involves physical activity that benefits the cardiovascular system (improves heart and blood vessel function), enhances balance and coordination (due to movements like dribbling, jumping, and passing), and builds strength in arm, leg, and stomach muscles (from shooting, running, and core engagement). So all options are correct.

Regulation men's basketballs (size 7) are larger in circumference (29.5 inches) than women's basketballs (size 6, 28.5 inches). So the statement is false.

Basketball was invented by James Naismith in 1891. The other options are not associated with the invention of basketball.

Answer:

D. All of the above
