Final answer:

After the T wave or U wave and before the P wave in NSR, the ventricles are in diastole, allowing them to relax and fill with blood before the next contraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the T wave or U wave and before the P wave in NSR (Normal Sinus Rhythm), the ventricles are experiencing relaxation and filling with blood. This period is known as diastole, when the heart is in a relaxed state. Diastole allows the ventricles to refill with blood before the next contraction, ensuring a continuous flow of blood throughout the body.
