Please compare and contrast action potentials in cardiac autorhythmic cells and cardiac contractile cells, including drawings to illustrate your discussion. Would increased sympathetic nervous system activity affect either of these cells? If so, please describe how, including the cellular mechanism that produces the effect. What effect(s) would this have on overall cardiac function?
Contractilecells contract when stimulated, Autorythmic Cells on other hand ae self stimulating and contract without any external stimulation.
Autorythmic Cells Exhibit Pace-maker Potentials. Depolarisation is due to inward diffusion of calcium(not sodium). Depolarisation begins when---
In contractile cells--
Answer2 and its description----
YES sympathetic Nervous System Activity affects Contractile cells because aympathetic fibres richly innervate both atrial and ventricular contractile cells. Sympathetic stimulation increases the strength of contraction, which makes heart beating more forcefully and consequently ejecting more blood . This effect Results from an increase in calcium permeability which enhances the slow influx of calcium and thereby increasing the amount of calcium to participate in excitation- contraction coupling process.
Answer 3
Overall affect as follows

Diagram how an action potential generates contraction (excitation-contraction coupling) in a cardiac muscle cell. Compare and contrast cardiac muscle cell action potentials (both autorhythmic and contractile cells) and contraction with those in skeletal and smooth muscles. (be sure to discuss refractory periods & summation/tetanus in each type of muscle).
Compare and contrast the molecular events of the action potential in the pacemaker cells of the SA node to those in a ventricular (contractile) cardiomyocyte. Be sure to point out how these molecular events underlie the differences in the shapes of the two types of potentials and how these differences serve the difference in functions for these cell types.
Compare and contrast graded potentials and action potentials, with particular attention to their locations in the neuron and the ions and ion channels involved in each. Label a voltage-versus-time diagram of an action potential with the ions involved in each phase, the direction of their movement across the membrane, and the terms depolarize, repolarize, and hyperpolarize. Describe the physiological process involved in the conduction (propagation) 2 of an actic potential, including the types and locations of the ion channels involved....
1. Discuss the differences in contractile cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle action potentials. 2. Under what conditions would RHOgam be given to a patient based on what was discussed in lecture? Why? (Meaning what is the activity of the medication, and what is the condition being prevented) 3. You're watching a child for your friend who was called into work. Unfortunately, you've recently had rodents trying to take up residence in your cabinets and have decided to take action. You...

Can you please explain in simple terms the methods of this experiment? I'm having difficulty visualizing and understanding what is being done. I have copied and pasted some of the text from the article. Thank you! Abstract : Obesity, high-fat diets, and subsequent type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are associated with cognitive impairment. Moreover, T2DM increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and leads to abnormal elevation of brain beta-amyloid levels, one of the hallmarks of AD. The psychoactive alkaloid caffeine...
