Answer: A. How does exercise improve heart health?

Option A provides the best question for a quality research paper. The question is broad enough to require further research, but also narrow enough to be able to be explored deeply in a research paper. Options B and C provide questions that require very short answers. Options C and D provide question that have an obvious answer and do not require further research.
