Which of the following correctly explains a phase/ event in the cardiac cycle in a standard electrocardiogram?
Options
- AQRS complex indicates atrial contraction.
- BQRS complex indicates ventricular contraction.
- CThe time between S and T represents atrial systole.
- DP-wave indicates the beginning of ventricular contraction.
