Homework Answers
The heartbeat is created by an electrical signal that starts in the heart’s upper right chamber (right atrium). The signal is produced in an area of specialized cells in the atrium called the sinus node.The electrical signal moves down through the heart to the atrioventricular node,that is located in the center of the heart between the atria and ventricles. The AV node is sometimes referred to as an electrical relay station because its function is to slow the electrical current before it passes to the lower chambers of the heart.From the AV node, the electrical current travels to the ventricles along special fibers embedded in the heart walls. When the current arrives in the ventricles, they contract and pump blood out to the body.
In heart block,the electrical signal that controls the heartbeat is partially or completely blocked from reaching the ventricles. Hence Causing the ventricles relax for a shorter period of time.

What happens immediately after an electrical signal is sent from the sinoatrial node before it reaches the atrioventricular node in a healthy heart? o Atrial contraction of both atria. o Ventricular contraction of the left ventricle. o Atrial contraction of the right atria. o Ventricular contraction of both ventricles.

In an adult, a heart rate of 60-100 beats/min is a normal sinus rhythm (NSR). A heart rate at or above 101 beats/min is called tachycardia, but in young children, this rate would be considered normal. Heart rates belovw 60 beats/min are normal for highly conditioned individuals, but in most adults this is bradycardia I. Calculate the heart rate for the ECGx.0 Diagnosis P-R intervals: Normal P-R intervals are between 0.12 and 0.2 seconds, averaging about 0.16 seconds. P-F intervals...

You are studying the heart of a strange newly-discovered primate
species. Its basic structure is like that of the human heart, but
the timing of the wave of excitation which emanates from the
SA-node and spreads throughout the atria and ventricles are quite
different. The figure below shows the time of arrival of the wave
at various points in the heart relative to its generation at the
SA-node.
Cardiac action potentials were recorded at different points in
the atrial and...
