Indicate which of the following sentences is true in heart failure caused by stenosis of the mitral valve. Group of answer choices 1)Anytime a valve is stenotic, the L atrium must generate a greater force than normal to attempt to move blood through the narrowed opening.  This decreases the workload on the heart, eventually leading to an inoperative muscle.    2)Anytime a valve is stenotic, the L atrium must generate a greater force than normal to attempt to move blood through the narrowed opening into the  L ventricle.  This increases the workload on the heart, eventually leading to its weakening and failing.     3)Anytime a valve is stenotic, the R atrium cannot generate greater force than normal to attempt to move blood through the narrowed opening, and it fails.    4)Anytime there is valve regurgitation, the heart must generate a greater force than normal to attempt to move blood through the narrowed opening into the ventricle.  This increases the workload on the heart, eventually leading to its weakening and failing.
