Final answer:

The stroke volume (SV) given an end-diastolic volume (EDV) of 120 ml/beat and an end-systolic volume (ESV) of 50 ml/beat is 70 mL/beat. the correct option is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate stroke volume (SV), you subtract the end-systolic volume (ESV) from the end-diastolic volume (EDV). Given the EDV of 120 ml/beat and an ESV of 50 ml/beat, the stroke volume would be calculated as follows: SV = EDV - ESV, which gives us SV = 120 ml - 50 ml. Therefore, the stroke volume (SV) would be 70 mL/beat.
