What is the correct order of electrical activity during a cardiac cycle?

a)

AVN -> SAN -> Bundle of His -> Purkinje fibres

b)

SAN -> AVN -> Bundle of His -> Purkinje fibres

c)

AVN -> Purkinje fibres -> SAN -> Bundle of His

d)

SAN -> Bundle of His -> AVN -> Purkinje fibres

2.

The ____ acts as the heart's pacemaker.

a)

AVN

b)

Bundle of His

c)

cardiac myogenic tissue

d)

SAN

3.

The wave of electrical activity in the sinoatrial node causes the ventricles to contract.

a)

True

b)

False

4.

SAN activity immediately leads to... [select 2]

a)

the atrioventricular valves opening

b)

semilunar valve

c)

atrial systole

d)

atrial diastole

e)

ventricular systole

5.

Why doesn't the SAN send the entire heart contracting at the same time? [select 2]

a)

The Purkinje fibres prevent the contraction of ventricular walls

b)

Chambers that are not stretched are unable to contract

c)

Non-conducting tissue prevents immediate contraction of ventricles

d)

The AVN delays the impulse, allowing the ventricles to fill

6.

The correct pathway of the conduction system of the heart is

c)

AVN, Atrial systole, SAN, Bundle of His, Purkinje fibres, Systolic systole

d)

SAN, Atrial systole, AVN, Bundle of His, Purkinje fibres, ventricular systole
