The greater the diameter of the fiber that much greater the heartrate will be. Because at the synaptic junction wider surface area will release more neurotransmitter materials which in turn will provoke greater action potential and thus increased heartrate.

What is dromotropic effect?

Dromotropic effect is the effect on conduction of current. It could be positive or negative depending on the final outcome. A negative dromotropic effect would mean decrease in conduction activity of current while positive would mean increase in conduction activity of current.


What is a negative dromotropic effect on the heart?

A negative dromotropic effect refers to a decrease in the conduction velocity of electrical impulses through the heart's conduction system, particularly the atrioventricular (AV) node. This can result in a slower heart rate and may lead to various arrhythmias or impaired cardiac function. Medications or physiological conditions that induce a negative dromotropic effect can help manage certain heart conditions but may also pose risks if conduction is excessively slowed.

Is the term for a delay or interruption in conduction of the electrical impulse in the myocardium?

The term for a delay or interruption in conduction of the electrical impulse in the myocardium is "heart block." Heart blocks can range from first-degree (mildest) to third-degree (most severe) based on the extent of conduction disruption in the heart's electrical system.


Is fiber a vitamin?

No Fiber is not a vitamin. Fiber is an indigestible carbohydrate that adds bulk to your stool. Studies have shown that fiber may reduce the risk of colon cancer as well as have a positive effect on heart disease/lowering cholesterol. An adult female should have ~25-30g/day and an adult male should have ~30-35g/day.
