When atria and ventricles relax and blood fills in atria, the period is called
A
Atrial systole
B
Cardiac diastole
C
Ventricular systole
D
Cardiac cycle
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: -Atrial Diastole: In this stage, chambers of the heart are calmed. That is when the aortic valve and pulmonary artery closes and atrioventricular valves open, thus causing chambers of the heart to relax. Atrial Systole: At this phase, blood cells flow from atrium to ventricle and at this period, atrium contracts.

Detailed explanation-3: -The period of relaxation that occurs as the chambers fill with blood is called diastole. Both the atria and ventricles undergo systole and diastole, and it is essential that these components be carefully regulated and coordinated to ensure blood is pumped efficiently to the body.

Detailed explanation-4: -At the start of the cycle, during ventricular diastole–early, the heart relaxes and expands while receiving blood into both ventricles through both atria; then, near the end of ventricular diastole–late, the two atria begin to contract (atrial systole), and each atrium pumps blood into the ventricle below it.
