Which of the following is the correct sequence of events in the cardiac cycle?
Atrial systole -> ventricular diastole -> ventricular systole -> atrial diastole

Atrial systole -> ventricular systole -> atrial diastole -> ventricular diastole
Ventricular systole -> atrial systole -> ventricular diastole -> atrial diastole
