Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The human heart can generate enough pressure to squirt blood much farther than 1 foot - up to 30 feet or more. Normal systolic blood pressure can reach around 120 mmHg, which is sufficient to propel blood vertically against gravity. The '1 foot' distance is a significant underestimate, making the False statement correct.
