The medical term for abnormality in the heart's electrical activity detected by electrocardiography is "arrhythmia." Arrhythmias can cause the heart to beat too fast, too slow, or irregularly, which can lead to symptoms like dizziness, palpitations, or even more serious complications such as heart failure or sudden cardiac arrest.

Why abnormalities of the heart is better detected by ausculation rather than electrocardiography?
with electrocardiography and auscultation different abnormalities can be detected. For example, ecg can show abnormal rythms (due to the damage to the conductive tissue or high level of potassium). But cardiac mummurs can only be heard (they're because of valvular problems)

Describe the origin and pathway of an impulse that results in smell?
Smell is a chemical sense detected by sensory cells called chemoreceptors. When an odorant stimulates the chemoreceptors in the nose that detect smell, they pass on electrical impulses to the brain which then interprets patterns in electrical activity as specific odors and olfactory sensation becomes perception.

Where can one find a brain wave?
Your brain is made up of billions of brain cells called neurons, which use electricity to communicate with each other. The combination of millions of neurons sending signals at once produces an enormous amount of electrical activity in the brain, which can be detected using sensitive medical equipment (such as an EEG), measuring electricity levels over areas of the scalp. The combination of electrical activity of the brain is commonly called a BrainWave pattern, because of its cyclic, "wave-like" nature.
