The relaxation phase of the heart.
A
systole
B
diastole
C
fibrillation
D
tachycardia
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Diastole begins with the closing of the aortic valve (or pulmonic) and ends with the closing of the mitral valve (or tricuspid). This period encompasses the ventricular relaxation and filling. Diastole represents when the blood vessels return blood to the heart in preparation for the next ventricular contraction.

Detailed explanation-2: -The pressure of blood inside the artery during contraction is called systolic pressure and pressure in an artery during relaxation is called diastolic pressure.

Detailed explanation-3: -filling occurs during diastole, which has 4 phases: (1) isovolumic relaxation; (2) rapid filling phase; (3) slow filling, or diastasis; and (4) final filling during atrial systole (atrial kick.)
