Solution

The correct option is

A

Auriculo-Ventricular valves

The “ lub” is the first heart sound, commonly termed S1, and is caused by turbulence caused by the closure of mitral and tricuspid valves at the start of the systole. The second sound,” dub” or S2, is caused by the closure of aortic and pulmonic valves, marking the end of systole.
