Unlike skeletal mucle tissue which is also striated, cardiac muscle is branched. What does this allow?
contraction of the entire heart in a coordinated way
contraction of the heart in one direction
contraction of the heart all at once
contraction of the heart from side to side
Which part would be third in the electrical conduction system?
sinoatrial node
AV node
AV Bundle (bundle if His)
Purkinge fibers
Contraction of the ventricles is associated with what part of the electrical conduction system?
sinoatrial node
AV node
AV Bundle branches
Purkinge fibers
Diastole is associated with
contraction of the heart
relaxation of the heart
myocardial infarction
angina
What is a cardiac cycle?
the number of beats per minute
the volume of blood ejected with each left ventricular stroke
everything that goes on in the heart from one heart beat to the next
the ability of the heart to turn around
Which of the following is represents a cardiac cycle?
PQRST

Relaxation of the heart corresponds to
T wave and baseline
P wave
QRS Complex
PR Interval
On an ECG, the P wave represents __________________________.
Contraction of the Atria
