Considering the left ventricle, why does isovolumetric ventricular contraction occur during ventricular systole?

Heart failure

Which of the following statements is correct concerning the cardiac cycle? The event of the cardiac cycle that completes ventricular filling is ventricular systole. At the beginning of the cardiac cycle, the atria are relaxed and the ventricles are contracting. The backflow of blood towards the ventricles causes the semilunar valves to open. In late ventricular diastole, all chambers are relaxed and filling to about seventy percent of their capacity. The first event of ventricular systole is ventricular ejection.
