CORRECT
This is an A wave which is enhanced by right atrial contraction. Normally it's the largest and most easily visualized wave.
But there is more Try again.

CORRECT AGAIN
This is a V wave which is associated with the passive distension of the right atrium during ventricular systole. Normally it is small or not visible at all.
Note: Play the video one more time. Both the A and V waves are visible in this example.
