C is the best among all the answers.

D and E distort the meaning, hence out.

among A,B and C, both A and B sound as if it's the heart's output(or the output of the heart) under stress and intellectual vigor that remains unchanged. Actually it's the two things that remain unchanged - the intellectual vigor and the output of the heart under stress. hence C.

I understand why D and E don't make sense but can you please explain why C is better than A and B?

If you look at A and B again, you would notice that both sound like "hearts output under (stress and intellectual vigor). Whereas, the intention is to clearly identify two different capabilities - the intellectual vigor and the output of the heart under stress. hence C is right.
