    This movement is created by the relative pressure differences between the semi-lunar valves and the high pressure level that was generated in the ventricles. This is when both the ventricles contract to deliver the blood into the pulmonary and systemic circulation by the shortening of muscle cells. After a duration of about 150 msec when ventricle contraction reaches a peak the ventricular pressure starts decreasing quickly. During this time the semi-lunar valves are shut due to blood from the aorta
