Answer:

It happens in the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle

Step-by-step explanation:

During the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle, blood is allowed to enter the heart when it relaxes after a contraction.

Approximately one systole (contraction phase) that lasts 300 milliseconds and a diastole of 500 milliseconds.
