That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
During systolic or systole, the heart is in its contracting phase. This is when the heart muscle contracts and pumps blood out of the chambers and into the arteries. The contraction of the heart creates pressure, which is at its maximum during systole. Therefore, the correct answer is "Contracts."
