As we have learnt:

Neural regulation 

  • The cardiac centres of the body are placed in the medulla oblongata of the brain
  • It is formed of 2 parts i.e. cardio-inhibitor and cardiac-accelerator 
  • Cardio-inhibiting  part reduces the rate of heart beat while cardio-accelerating part increases the rate of heart beat
  • Cardio inhibitor is connected to the heart with the help of vagus nerve
  • Cardio accelerator is connected to the heart via sympathetic nerve fibres.
  • There are Sensory fibres that extend from the receptors (in the superior vena cava, aorta, and carotid sinuses)  to the cardiovascular centres in the medulla oblongata
  • The impulses from aorta and carotid sinus decrease the heart rate 
  • The impulses from vena cava increase the heart rate

So,

The impulses from vena cava increase the heart rate. Hence, the correct answer is option c.
