Atropine works by blocking acetylcholine receptors. If you add acetylcholine to the heart, followed by atropine, what would you expect to happen? Explain.
What is the consequence of the prolonged plateau of depolarization in ventricular myocytes?   a-it causes ventricular myocytes to contract for a longer time, allowing the ventricles time to empty b-it gives additional time for the atria to contract, filling the ventricles more completely c-it causes repolarization to be delayed which slows heart rate d-it allows the ventricles a moment to rest before completing contraction
