Abnormal heart sound caused by improper closure of heart valve is called a murmur.

A murmur is caused by turbulent blood flow, when a heart valve either fails to open normally or fails to fully close.

Would turbulence of blood flow through the aortic valve give rise to the first heart sound?

No. The heart sounds are caused by the closure of heart valves. The first heart sound is caused by the closure of the AV valves (tricuspid and mitral). The second heart sound is the result of the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valve after the completion of systole. Turbulence of blood flow through the aortic valve would cause a murmur (an abnormal heart sound) during systole.

Is The first heart sound S1 is caused by closure of the AV valves and the second heart sound S2 is caused by closure of the SL valves?

Yes, the first heart sound (S1) is indeed caused by the closure of the atrioventricular (AV) valves, which occurs at the beginning of ventricular contraction (systole). The second heart sound (S2) is produced by the closure of the semilunar (SL) valves at the end of ventricular contraction, marking the beginning of ventricular diastole. These sounds are important indicators of the heart's functioning and can be assessed during a physical examination.
