**QUESTION 25**

At the point labeled E the ___.

**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram is a graphical representation of cardiac cycle pressures over time, showing the changing pressures in the aorta (black line), atria (green line), and ventricles (red line). The y-axis represents pressure in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), ranging from 0 to 120 mm Hg. The x-axis represents time. Key points are marked A, B, C, D, and E, indicating different phases or events in the cardiac cycle.

- **Point A:** The start of ventricular systole (contraction).
- **Point B:** Rapid rise in ventricular pressure as the ventricles contract.
- **Point C:** Peak ventricular and aortic pressure.
- **Point D:** Decline in ventricular pressure as the ventricles begin to relax.
- **Point E:** Corresponds to the beginning of ventricular diastole (relaxation).

**Multiple Choice Answers:**

- ○ semilunar valves are open
- ○ atrioventricular valves are open
- ○ atria are in systole
- ○ ventricles are in isovolumic contraction

**Correct Answer:** 

- ○ atrioventricular valves are open
