The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The “lub” sound (S1) of the heart is caused by the closure of the atrioventricular valves (tricuspid and bicuspid/mitral valves) at the beginning of ventricular systole (contraction). This prevents blood from flowing back into the atria.
The “dub” sound (S2) is caused by the closure of the semilunar valves (pulmonary and aortic valves).
