Doctors use a stethoscope to hear the sounds produced during each cardiac cycle. The second sound is heard when:

1. AV valves open up
2. Ventricular walls vibrate due to the gushing of blood from the atria
3. Semi-lunar valves close down after the blood flows into vessels from the ventricles
4. AV node receives a signal from SA node

In humans, blood passes from the post caval to the diastolic right atrium of heart due to:

1. pushing open of the venous valves

2. suction pull

3. stimulation of the sino auricular node

4. pressure difference between the caval and atrium
