Long term (months to years) increases in the pressure required to open the pulmonary valve would be expected to increase the thickness of the myocardium in the:
a. left ventricle
b. right atrium
c. left atrium
d. aorta
e. right ventricle

The correct answer will be option E- right ventricle.

Explanation:

The pulmonary valves are the one -way valves present in the right ventricle of the heart. These pulmonary valves are made up of 3 cusps which separate the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery.

If the pressure is built in the right ventricle it will cause the thickness of the myocardium, the layer which helps in the pumping the blood to the lungs via the pulmonary artery.

Thus, option E- right ventricle is the correct answer.
