Systole
A
Contraction phase of the cardiac muscle
B
Relaxation phase of thr cardiac muscle
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Systole is the period when the heart chambers contract that causes the ejection of blood into the aorta and pulmonary trunk.

Detailed explanation-2: -systole, period of contraction of the ventricles of the heart that occurs between the first and second heart sounds of the cardiac cycle (the sequence of events in a single heart beat). Systole causes the ejection of blood into the aorta and pulmonary trunk.

Detailed explanation-3: -During systole, the two ventricles develop pressure and eject blood into the pulmonary artery and aorta. At this time the atrioventricular valves are closed and the semilunar valves are open. The semilunar valves are closed and the atrioventriular valves are open during diastole.

Detailed explanation-4: -The cardiac cycle involves four major stages of activity: 1) “Isovolumic relaxation", 2) Inflow, 3) “Isovolumic contraction", 4) “Ejection".

Detailed explanation-5: -Systole is when the heart muscle contracts. When the heart contracts, it pushes the blood out of the heart and into the large blood vessels of the circulatory system. From here, the blood goes to all of the organs and tissues of the body. During systole, a person’s blood pressure increases.
