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 phase in the cardiac cycle in which the ventricles relax between contractions?
The ventricles relax during diastole.
Does the length of cardiac cycle decrease with more rapid heart rate?
The diastolic phase
When does majority of the coronary artery fill?
The coronary artery fills during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle
How long does the circulatory phase of cardiac arrest lasts?
The circulatory phase begins at 4 minutes and lasts through 10 minutes following the cardiac arrest.
Which is the phase of cardiac cycle in whitch the auricles contract?
Systole is the correct answer
Which phase of the cardiac cycle is longest?
ventricular diastole
During what phase of cardiac cycle are all four chambers in diastole?
Once the ventricles contraction phase is over, the diastole starts. Then all the four chambers are in diastole, till the atria start to contract.
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...
What is a contraction phase of the heartbeat?
The cardiac cycle of the heart has two phases - the diastole phase and systole phase. In the systole phase, the ventricles contract and pump blood into the arteries.
Phase of the cardiac cycle that shortens most in response to tachycardia?
diastolic
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)
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.
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.
