Solution
The correct option is A Heart valve stenosis
Heart valve stenosis is the condition when the lumen of the valve which supplies the blood from the heart to the aorta is narrowed.
This narrowing results in a decrease in the functioning of the valve. The valve does not open and thus, there is a decrease in the blood which flows through this valve.
This results in the abnormal heartbeat or murmur of the heart.
