The hearts electrical activity starts with the sino-atrial node in the right atrium, which sends its impulse to the rest of the heart causing contraction. However it the SA node fails there are still two backups, the AV Junction, and the purkinje fibers, however they are not able to send out impulses as fast and the contractions aren't as efficient.
