What is the main function of systole in the cardiac cycle?

  • Relaxing the chambers
  • Pumping blood into circulation (correct)
  • Closing the semilunar valves

    • What happens during atrial systole?

  • Semilunar valves open
  • Atria relax
  • Ventricles contract, pushing blood into the atria

    • What is the end diastolic volume (EDV) in the cardiac cycle?

  • Total volume of blood in the heart at the end of relaxation (correct)
  • Volume of blood in the atria during contraction
  • Amount of blood left in ventricles after stroke volume is pushed out
  • Amount of blood pushed out by ventricles
