The SA node is the "pacemaker" of the heart. Cells in the SA node are called "pacemaker" cells and they direct the contraction rate of the entire heart by generating action potentials.
SA node effects which neurotransmitter?
The primary pacemaker of a normal healthy heart is the sinus node (or SA node). It is located in the right atria of the heart.
The primary pacemaker of the mammalian heart is the sino-atrial node. If the SA node fails, the atrioventricular node (AV node) takes over pacemaking.
Its one of these, cant remember which one though: AV node, SA node AV bundle, Purkinje fibres. SA node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibres, AV node. SA node, AV node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibres. Purkinje fibres, SA node, AV node, AV bundle.
If the SA node fails to fire the atrioventricular node should take over.
The anterior, upper part of the right atrium.The Sinoatrial Node or SA Node is located in the right Atrium of the Heart. The SA node is responsible of the normal sinus rhythm.
SA node
NO! it is the SA Node..
The autonomic nervous system causes the SA node to fire
SA = System Annoyance
SA node sends an impulse for the atria to contract. AV node is then activated which contracts the ventricles.
The sino-atrial node (SA node) and, specifically the tissue of Bachmann's Bundle located within the SA node.
