Answer:

The correct answer is - B) effective pumping of the ventricles ceases because the myocardial cells fail to work as a team, and the brain cannot get adequate oxygen.

Explanation:

When the heart is in an irregular and rapid heart rate due to chaotic electrical signals in the atrial chambers of the heart which leads to a very fast heart rhythm that shows 100 to 175 heart rate. That leads to failure of the myocardial cells that stop the pumping of the ventricles effectively and therefore blood would not reach the brain and the brain would not get an adequate amount of oxygen. This will result in organisms experiencing faint, blackout or stroke-like complications.
