27
Q

When the piston reaches bottom dead center at the end of the intake stroke and is, therefore, at the bottom of the cylinder, the intake valve closes. This seals the upper end of the cylinder. As the crankshaft continues to rotate, it pushes up through the connecting rod on the piston. The piston is, therefore, pushed upward and compresses the cylinder; this is called

A

Compression stroke.

Q
