Question
Chapter 30, Problem 6MCQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The sinoatrial node is also called natural pacemaker is made of specialized bundle of neuron and is located in the upper part of right atrium. It is involved in the production of normal heart beats with a rhythm of about 70 beats per minutes for a healthy and resting heart.

When part of the heart muscle dies, how does itheal?b. How would the new tissue affect the strengthof the heart contraction?arrow_forwardIn conditioned athletes, the resting Heart Rate is generally much lower than in non-athletes. Why? a-because long-term exercise reduces Cardiac Output at rest to conserve energy b-because athletes have a smaller Stroke Volume at rest, causing Heart Rate to decrease as well c-because long-term exercise leads to increased vagal tone which slows Heart Rate d-because athletes have stronger ventricles and therefore a larger Stroke Volume at rest, so they require fewer bpm to achieve the same Cardiac Outputarrow_forward
