What does an electrocardiogram measure?

• The amount of pressure exerted on blood vessels.
• The electrical activity of the heart.
• How many times the heart contracts over time.
• The body's temperature caused by friction of blood in vessel.

What is going on in the heart during the T-wave

• SA node triggers depolarization in atria
• AV node triggers depolarization in ventricle, the main pumpung action
• Delay caused by the SA node
• Repolarization of the ventricle 

Intrinsic electrical impulses start at which of the following locations? (Which is the pacemaker of the heart?

• AV Node

• Bundle of His

• Purkinje fibers

• SA Node

Which is the correct path of electrical impulses through the heart?

• SA → Purkinje Fibers → Bundle Branches → AV
• SA → AV → Bundle Branches → Purkinje Fibers
• AV → SA → Bundle Branches → Purkinje Fibers
• AV → Bundle Branches → SA → Purkinje Fibers
