Solution

The correct option is D

Semilunar valves


The period between the end of one heart beat to the end of the next heart beat is called a cardiac cycle. The cardiac cycle is formed of three phases - atrial systole, ventricular systole and joint diastole.

During a ventricular systole, the closing of auriculoventricular valves at the start of the ventricular systole produces the first heart sound called ‘lubb’ or systolic sound.

During a joint diastole, the rapid closure of semilunar valves at the beginning of the ventricular diastole produces the second heart sound called ‘dup’.
