There are three majour ions that play a role in the cardiac conduction system. Soduim Soduim is slat mineral found in rock. It also comes in a liquid and is used in the heart. The hearts electrical impulses work on a thershold level of triggering depolarisation. Once the heart reaches a threshold for fireing impulses all the pacemakers depolarise. Soduim NA+ plays a role in the heart by determing the time of the threshold for depolarisation. The more soduim you have, the faster the threshold is reach so the pacemakers fire faster, like wise, the less soduim you have the slower the threshold for depolarisation and thus a decreases in heart rate. Pottasuim K+ Pottasium in the heart allows repolarisation to occur. K+ allows the heart cells to repolarise by dropping the threshold potential and this will re-open NA+ channels so that the threshold level is reached once more. K+ in the heart is a clear liquid. Calcuim Calcuim CA+ determinds the strength of cardiac contraction. The more CA+ you have the stronger the contraction and the less CA+ you have the weaker the contraction. Calcuim is also found in bones, however it is a key ion is muscles and it works with pre-load and the heart.
Normal impulse conduction
Veins and arteries are in the circulatory system. Therefore that means they have something to do with pumping blood to cells around the body. So I would say that the role the arteries play in the body is that it carries blood to and from the heart to other parts of the body
Of course heart plays amajor role in the circulation (pumping) of blood
The Bergeron process and the collision-coalescence process play a role in the freezing nuclei.
beta neuron
the role of the heart is to supply the working muscle with oxygen and energy
No. Genetics can play a major role in heart disease.
It pumps blood to the lungs.
The Respatory System . i Guessed . :)
Yes, ions can be found in the Earth's atmosphere. These ions are often formed from the interaction of sunlight with molecules in the atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen. Ions play a role in processes like lightning strikes and the formation of the Earth's ionosphere.
It's the organ that pumps the blood through the body.
Screw this. IM Dropping OUT
Magnesium ions make up approximately 7.7 percent of the ions in seawater. These ions play a key role in various biological processes and are important for the health of marine organisms.
they work as a barrier: ions can't pass through. They also have a metabolic role: signaling, or communication (cell to cell interaction)
Cells of the conducting system in the heart are more sensitive to calcium ions than sodium ions. Calcium plays a crucial role in regulating the generation and propagation of electrical impulses in the heart, which is important for initiating and coordinating heartbeats.
Magnesium ions are essential for various biological processes in the body, including muscle and nerve function, blood sugar regulation, and bone health. They also play a role in energy production and DNA synthesis. Additionally, magnesium helps to maintain normal heart rhythm and supports the immune system.
they are both part of the heart
