Answer 1

The correct option is A

1.Isovolumetric contraction 2.Mitral valve 3.Tricuspid valve 4.IsovolumetricRelaxation 5. Aortic valve 6.Pulmonary Valve

The most fundamental heart sounds are the first and second sounds, usually abbreviated as S₁ and S₂. S₁ is caused by closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves at the beginning of isovolumetric ventricular contraction S₁ is normally slightly split (~0.04 sec) because mitral valve closure precedes tricuspid valve closure; however, this very short time interval cannot normally be heard with the stethoscope and hence only a single sound is perceived. S₂ is caused by closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves at the beginning of isovolumetric ventricular relaxation
