Answer

A

Explanation

Lubb (first sound, systolic sound) is the first heart sound which is low pitched, not very loud, of long duration (nbout 0.15 seconds) and is produced partly due to closure of atrio-ventricular valves (tricuspid and bicuspid) and partly by the contraction of the muscles in the ventricles.
