Purkinje fibers usually carry information. They contain a few scanty, scattered, and more or less nonfunctional sarcomeres; they also contain a good deal of glycogen and a PAS stain will really make them stand out.
Purkinje fibers also transmit impulses rapidly from the atrioventricular node to the ventricles.

What carries cardiac impulses to the myocardium?
Purkinje Fibers
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 part of the conduction system of the heart that wraps around in the outer walls of the ventricular is?
Purkinje 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
Efferent fibers carry information from to .?
The Axons
What is the name of the fibers that carry cardiac impulses from the interventricular septum into the myocardium?

Can purkinje fibers self-excite?
Purkinje fibers refer to a unique cardiac end-organ. They are split in atria and ventricles walls and can undergo self-excitation.
