The heart is known to be myogenic because the muscles that contract the heart through a pulse are themselves called myocytes.
im looking for the answer too. lol biology 2 workbook?
It is from the area we call Tibet. Tibet sits in the heart of Asia, right between India and China.
Yes! Very sick.. What you are seeing is poor capillary refill and means the heart isn't pumping blood properly. CALL THE VET IMMEDIATELY!
How does an insects heart beat How does an insects heart beat How does an insects heart beat How does an insects heart beat
there are lots of things about the heart it pumps blood around your heart
Yes, a toad's heart is myogenic.
A myogenic heart is a heart that can naturally contract and relax and doesn't need to receive impulses from a nerve to make it contract. your heart is a Myogenic heart
So the word "myogenic" refers to a type of cell, a myocyte, that is able to contract by itself, without any nerve stimulation (aka signals from the brain). So if someone refers to a myogenic heart, that person just means that the heart is able to beat on its own, without you willing it to beat. The myocytes within the heart regulate the heart's contractions instead of your brain doing it.
I think, heart of a cockroach is myogenic. It can stop anytime. That's why even when the heart stops doesn't mean cockroach is dying.
In the human heart, contraction is initiated by a special modified heart muscle known as sinoatrial node. It is located in the right atrium. The SA node has the inherent power of generating a wave of contraction and controlling the heart beat. Hence, it is known as the pacemaker. Since the heart beat is initiated by the SA node and the impulse of contraction originates in the heart itself, the human heart is termed myogenic. The hearts of vertebrates and molluscs are also myogenic.
The myogenic heart refers to the contractile part of it, while the neurogenic heart refers to the highly specialized muscle cells that no longer contract but instead conduct impulses in the heart.
Cardiac / Myogenic
The heart or "Cardiac muscle" is myogenic meaning that it will independently contract without a stimulus. The nerve impulses in the heart are merely to regulate the natural beat of the heart.

myogenic refers to the contraction of cardiac muscle cells.
The brain does not send the electricity to the heart. The heart is myogenic which means it can contract and relax without any stimulus from the brain.
limulus - all mammals (and vertebrates) have a myogenic heart
