Assertion (A): Dub' is one of the sounds of the heart caused during a cardiac cycle.

Reason (R): The sound is due to closure of semilunar valves present at the bases of aortic arches.

Statement (S): The sinoatrial node is called 'Pace-maker'.

Reason (R): The sinoatrial node contains specialised cardiomyocytes and generates action potentials without any external stimuli.

The correct answer is
