SA node effects which neurotransmitter?
The AV node delays the signal from the SA node, till the contraction of the atria is over. The delay period is about 0.1 second. The maximum limit for normal PR interval is 0.2 seconds.
It is a pathway for signals from the SA node to the AV node that passes through the walls of the atria.

No, the sinoatrial (SA) node initiates contraction of the atria, which subsequently causes stimulation of the AV node, which then initiates contraction of the ventricles via the Purkinje fibers.
SA node: P waveUnder normal conditions, electrical activity is spontaneously generated by the SA node, the physiological pacemaker. This electrical impulse is propagated throughout the right atrium, and throughBachmann's bundle to the left atrium, stimulating the myocardium of both atria to contract. The conduction of the electrical impulse throughout the left and right atria is seen on the ECG as the P wave. As the electrical activity is spreading throughout the atria, it travels via specialized pathways, known as internodal tracts, from the SA node to the AV node.
The primary pacemaker of a normal healthy heart is the sinus node (or SA node). It is located in the right atria of the heart.
The primary pacemaker of the mammalian heart is the sino-atrial node. If the SA node fails, the atrioventricular node (AV node) takes over pacemaking.
Its one of these, cant remember which one though: AV node, SA node AV bundle, Purkinje fibres. SA node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibres, AV node. SA node, AV node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibres. Purkinje fibres, SA node, AV node, AV bundle.
If the SA node fails to fire the atrioventricular node should take over.
The anterior, upper part of the right atrium.The Sinoatrial Node or SA Node is located in the right Atrium of the Heart. The SA node is responsible of the normal sinus rhythm.
NO! it is the SA Node..
SA node
The autonomic nervous system causes the SA node to fire
The SA node is the "pacemaker" of the heart. Cells in the SA node are called "pacemaker" cells and they direct the contraction rate of the entire heart by generating action potentials.
SA = System Annoyance
SA node sends an impulse for the atria to contract. AV node is then activated which contracts the ventricles.
The sino-atrial node (SA node) and, specifically the tissue of Bachmann's Bundle located within the SA node.
