indication of:
Response The level at which the jugular venous pulse is visible
Feedback: indicates right atrial pressure. The jugular veins empty

femoral pulses are palpated simultaneously. When
there is a delay and/or a palpable diminution of
amplitude of the femoral pulse, coarctation must be
suspected. Differences in blood pressure taken in the
arms and legs should confirm the suspicion.
 Question 4

Response Feedback
The sharp decrease in ventricular pressure that occurs during
ventricular diastole allows the atrioventricular valves (or mitral and
tricuspid valves) to open and causes the contents of the atria to
empty into the ventricles. ... Contraction of the atria follows
depolarization, represented by the P wave of the ECG.
