Question

Name the two components of the heart beat.​

Answer 1

There are two parts to each heartbeat:

the systole is when the heart contracts and pumps blood.

the diastole is when the heart relaxes, after contraction, so the chambers can refill with blood.

Answer 2

Two components of the heartbeat are systole and diastole.

• When the heart pumps blood, blood flows in articles and ventricles through a contraction.
• When the heart contracts during pumping or transport of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, is called systole.
• When the heart relaxes while pumping is known as diastole.
• During contraction and relaxation, a sound is produced i.e lub and dub which constitute one heartbeat.
