During the cardiac cycle, why do the aortic and pulmonic valves close after the ventricles relax?

◦ Papillary muscles relax, which allows the valves to close.
◦ Chordae tendineae contract, which pulls the valves closed.
◦ Reduced pressure in the ventricles creates a negative pressure, which pulls the valves closed.
◦ Blood fills the cusps of the valves and causes the edges to merge, closing the valves.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
