Diastole is the relaxation phase of the cardiac cycle. It is the normal rhythmic dilation of the heart's valves. During this time, the valves start to gather blood inside of their chambers. There are two types of diastole that occur in the heart, and they are:
1. Ventricular diastole - this is the period where the ventricles are filling and relaxing.
2. Atrial diastole - the period in which the atria are relaxing.
This is a continuous cycle that occurs in the heart the moment a person is conceived until the person meets his/her death.
Diffusion occurs because of the movement of molecules from
the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. This
movement of molecules occurs due to a thermal motion. Diffusion normally occurs
between two compartments having difference in concentration. In case of fluid
it moves from the region of higher concentration to the region of concentration
until a balance is reached. The process of diffusion is very important for the
humans as well. The oxygen that humans breathe in gets diffused with the blood.
<span>What type of blood vessel is A?
The blood vessel is a artery
It carries blood away from the heart. Hope this helps. :)
