Solution

The correct option is A Semilunar valves
During each cardiac cycle two prominent sounds are produced, which can be easily heard through a stethoscope. The first heart sound (lubb) is associated with the closure of the tricuspid and bicuspid valves, whereas the second heart sound (dupp / dubb) is associated with the closure of the semilunar valves. These sounds are of clinical diagnostic significance.
