Answer to Question 1

F
During the absolute refractory period, the cell will not respond to further stimulation. This means that the myocardial working cells cannot contract and the cells of the electrical conduction system cannot conduct an electrical impulse, no matter how strong the stimulus.

Answer to Question 2

A
The pulmonic and aortic valves are semilunar (SL) valves. The semilunar valves prevent backflow of blood from the aorta and pulmonary arteries into the ventricles.
