What are the pathways through the body for electrical impulses?

in what order do the structures of the neuron carry the electrical signal?

What is the correct sequence of parts that function to carry cardiac impulses?

SA node, AV node, AV Bundle, Purkinje Fibers


What is The order of impulse conduction in the heart from beginning to end?

The impulse starts in the right atria in the sinus node, then travels through the intratrial fibers for atrial contraction, then travels down to the the av node where it is delayed, then travels down through the bundle branches to the purkinjee fibers to the ventricular myocardium for contraction.


What pickup the signal after the sinoatrial node?

Electricity fires from the SA node to the AV node. It then goes to the bundle of his and out the perkinji fibers.


What is the correct sequence of cardiac electrical activity?

The impulses from SA node spread through out the atrial musculature in about 0.09 seconds, and parallel to it, the impulses also reach the AV node. From AV node, after a delay of about 0.12 seconds they pass to the inter ventricular septum through the Bundle of His, which soon divides into Left and Right Bundle branch and ultimately into the Purkinje fibers which first depolarize the endocardium of the ventricles and then the rest of ventricular musculature. SA Node --> Atria, AV node --> Bundle of His --> Right & Left Bundle Branches --> Purkinje fibers


What is the firing order of electricity in the human heart?

SA node, AV node, Bundle of His, Purkinje fibers


Does the AV node initiates the contraction 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.


What are the four structures that compose the conduction system of the heart?

1. SA Node ----> 2. AV Node---> 3. AV Bundle (bundle of HIS)----> 4. Purkinje Fibers


The normal pattern of impulse conduction through the heart is?

SA node, AV node, AV Bundle, Bundle branches, subedocardial branches (purkinje fibers)


What are the structures involved in the conduction system of the heart?

Internal pacemaker , sinoatrial(sa) node, atrioventricular (av) node , atrioventricular bundle (bundle of his ) and purkinje fibres.
