True
False
Tetany is the involuntary contraction of muscles. It does not happen in heart muscles because of
Ca++ influx
Na+ influx
K+ influx
After an action potential the cardiac cell is unable to initiate another action potential for some time duration refractory period. That is why Tetany the involuntary contraction of muscles does not happen in heart muscles
