Which phase of the cardiac cycle is longest?
ventricular diastole
What phase of the cardiac cycle is longest?
Atria Diastole is the longest (0.7sec)
What is occurring during the diastolic period?
Diastole is the phase in the cardiac cycle that allows filling of blood into the ventricle. It corresponds to the lower number in the blood pressure measurement. A normal upper limit of the blood pressure falls in the range less than 120/80 mm Hg. Above this value, it is considered pre-hypertension based on The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure.During the diastolic period the ventricle is in the fifth phase of the cardiac cycle. This phase is termed isovolumetric relaxation which occurs immediately after the second heart sound. In this phase, all valves of the heart are closed. The volume of blood in the ventricle during this phase of the cardiac cycle remains constant. Following the fifth phase of the cardiac cycle is the rapid filling of blood into the ventricle. This cycle corresponds to the opening of the mitral and tricuspid valves located between the left and right atria and ventricle, respectively. The next phase of the cardiac cycle, called diastasis, is the longest phase of the cardiac cycle. In this cycle, the ventricle continues to fill with blood but at a much slower rate. The final phase of diastole corresponds to the first phase of the cardiac cycle. In this phase of the cardiac cycle, the atria contracts to provide additional filling of blood into the ventricle. After the final phase of diastole, the systolic phase of the cardiac cycle begins.
The R wave of the ECG is most closely associated with which phase of the cardiac contraction cycle?
Ventricular contraction.
During the isovolumetric relaxation phase of the cardiac cycle the AV valves are and the semilunar valves are?
closed and closed
Which phase of the cardiac cycle is longest?
ventricular diastole
Which is the phase of cardiac cycle in which the auricles contract?
The auricles will contract during the systolic phase of the cardiac cycle. This is one of the numbers that is measured when a patient has their blood pressure taken.
When do the AV valve close during the cardiac cycle?
AV valves close during the systole phase of the cardiac cycle.
What is the alternating relaxation and contraction of the heart called?
Diastole is the relaxation phase. Systole is the contraction phase. If you put these phases together you have the Cardiac Cycle...
Phase of the cardiac cycle that shortens most in response to tachycardia?
diastolic
Which is the phase of cardiac cycle in whitch the auricles contract?
Systole is the correct answer
What is the phase of the cardiac cycle that is caused by the sliding of actin and myosin?
Systole
What phase of the cardiac cycle is longest?
Atria Diastole is the longest (0.7sec)

Coronary blood flow is greatest during what phase of the cardiac cycle?
diastolic
What heart phase takes 0.8 seconds to complete?
A complete cardiac cycle.
What is the phase in the cardiac cycle in which the ventricles relax between contractions?
The ventricles relax during diastole.
