Cardioacceleratory center
sympathetic
Cardioinhibitory center
parasympathetic
parasympathetics innervate the heart via the
vagus nerve
the _____ vagus nerve ends at the SA node
left
the _____ vagus nerve ends at the AV node
right
conduction system in the heart
SA node -> Internodal pathways -> AV node -> AV bundle -> Bundle branches -> Purkinje fibers
pacemaker of the heart
SA node
conduction slows as it goes through the
AV node
ventricles do not depolarize _____ in health
spontaneously
_____ is the resting stable electrical potential of ventricular myocytes
phase 4
Phase _ is a rapid depolarization
0
Phase _ a small variable repolarization
1
Phase _ maintains the cells in a depolarized state
2
Phase _ is the bulk of the repolarization
3
__ channels maintain the ventricular myocytes in a hyperpolarized state (Phase 4)
K (specifically IK1
The ___ channel slightly repolarizes the ventricular myocyte in phase 1.
ITO (transient outward)
