Expert Solution
Step 1
  • The cardiac cycle is the sequence of events that occur during one complete heartbeat.
  • Each heartbeat involves two major periods called the systole and the diastole.
  • The contraction phase of the ventricular chamber is called systole, and the relaxation phase is called diastole.
  • At a normal heart rate, it takes 0.8 seconds for one cardiac cycle.
