You would expect all of these to happen after drinking lots of water EXCEPT:

O higher venous return
O an ejection fraction higher than the normal of 60%
O higher preload, or end-diastolic volume (EDV)
higher stroke volume

Final answer:

Drinking lots of water leads to higher venous return, preload, and stroke volume, but not an ejection fraction higher than 60%.


Step-by-step explanation:

After drinking lots of water, you would expect higher venous return, higher preload, or end-diastolic volume (EDV), and higher stroke volume. These are the physiological effects of increased fluid intake on the cardiovascular system. However, an ejection fraction higher than the normal of 60% would not be expected after drinking lots of water.
