Which type of muscle tissue is autorhythmic?
cardiac muscle
Are autorhythmic cells located only in the interventricular septume?
Not exclusively:Cardiac Muscle cells are either contractile cells or autorhythmic cells. The majority are contractile.Examples of autorhythmic cells:Sinoatrial (SA), or Sinus, NodeAtrioventricular (AV) NodeAtrioventricular (AV) Bundle (occasionally referred to as the bundle of His)Right and Left Bundle BranchesPurkinje Fibers
What type of muscle would be considered autorhythmic?
Cardiac muscle
What would a nonfunctional sinoatrial node do?
It would cause the heart to stop beating in a autorhythmic fashion.
How do the waves of depolarization generated by the autorhythmic cells spread to the muscle cells?
Gap Junctions in the cell spread the action potential to nearby cells.
What are cloth fibers?
Just a guess but the fibers in clothing. ( cotton fibers, polyester fibers, etc)
What does auto rhythmic mean?
Autorhythmic cells (pacemakers) refers to the cardiac muscle cells responsible for synchronizing the contractile cells to coordinate a heart contraction.
What does auto-rhythmic mean?
Autorhythmic cells (pacemakers) refers to the cardiac muscle cells responsible for synchronizing the contractile cells to coordinate a heart contraction.
Which fibers are synthetic?
The fibers which are made by man are the synthetic fibers.

Andrenergic fibers release Norepinephrine and Cholinergic fibers release Acetylcholine.
What two names do manufactured fibers have?
