The contraction of ventricles is referred to as what?
systole
Period of heart contraction?
Contraction of the ventricles and atria is called systole. Relaxation is called diastole.
Is systolic pressure where the ventricls are relaxing?
Relaxation = Diastole Contraction of the atria=Atrial systole Contraction of the ventricles = Ventricular systole
To what does the term ventricular systole refer?
d. contraction of the ventricles
What does systole refer to?
The period of time marked by contraction of the ventricles
When is blood ejected from the ventricles?
during the systole phase of the heart contraction.
What are the two main phases of a heartbeat?
There is the contraction of the atria and the contraction of the ventricles. When the atria contract, the AV valves are open, allowing the blood to fall into the ventricles. The AV valves then close, and the ventricles contract, pumping the blood out into the arteries.
What is meant by systole and diastole?
The ventricles of heart have two states: systole(contraction) and diastole (relaxation). During diastole blood fills the ventricles and during systole the blood is pushed out of the heart into the arteries. The auricles contract anti-phase to the ventricles and chiefly serve to optimally fill the ventricles with blood.http://www.answers.com/systole
The contraction of the ventricles is referred to as systole and the period of ventricular relaxation is called?
I believe that is called diastole, in contrast to systole, the contraction of the heart muscles.
Name of the kind of blood ejected during systole?
Trick question. Systole means contraction and is commonly assumed to mean ventricular systole - contraction of the ventricles. These both contract at the same time and as the right is full of deoxygenated blood and the left full of oxygenated blood both types are pumped during systole.
What is a terminal systole?
is the sthrenght of the last contraction of the ventricles of the heart, at the end of the cardiac cycle.
The terms systole and diastole refer respectively to the?
contraction phase and relaxation phase of the ventricles
