At diastole the muscles of the atria and ventricles relax and blood flows into the heart. Therefore the atria and ventricles and at rest together during diastole.
Diastole is when the muscles of the atria and ventricles relax and blood flows into the heart.Ventricular diastole is when the muscles of the ventricles relax and blood flows into the heart. N.B It is called ventricular diastole and not ventrical diastole.
atrial diastole
Atria Diastole is the longest (0.7sec)
Mid-to-late diastole, ventricular systole and early diastole
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.
Once the ventricles contraction phase is over, the diastole starts. Then all the four chambers are in diastole, till the atria start to contract.
Complete cardiac diastole is the period of time when the heart relaxes after contraction in preparation for refilling with circulating blood. Both the ventricles and the atria are relaxing.
the atria
Contraction of the ventricles and atria is called systole. Relaxation is called diastole.
Relaxation = Diastole Contraction of the atria=Atrial systole Contraction of the ventricles = Ventricular systole
It decreases.
