The AV (atrioventricular node). Electrical conduction is slowed down at this node, and half the time of each action potential is spent on getting the signal through the AV node. This delay is to allow the ventricles to fill completely with blood before they get the signal to contract.
Which part of the heart encases the heart in a tough outer membrane?
A heartbeat produces the familiar "LUB-DUP" sounds as the chambers contract and the valves close. The first heart sound, "lub," is heard when the ventricles contract and the atrioventricular valves close. This sound last longest and has a lower pitch. The second heart sound, "dub," is heard when the relaxation of the ventricles allows the semilunar valves to close.

left part of heart
It is a fibrosis (formation of scar tissue) in septum, a part of the heart that separates left and right part of the heart. It is usually a consequence of a viral infection.
rising action.
The axon is the part of the neuron that can propagate an action potential. This process relies on the opening and closing of ion channels along the axon membrane to allow the action potential to travel from the cell body to the axon terminals.

Action potential in the brain
The axon hillock is the part of the neuron that is capable of generating an action potential. It integrates incoming signals from the dendrites and, if the threshold is reached, triggers the action potential to be propagated down the axon.
Negative
Heart
The part of the neuron that can propagate an action potential is the axon. When a neuron is sufficiently depolarized, the action potential travels along the axon by sequentially opening voltage-gated sodium channels, allowing ions to flow in and propagate the electrical signal. The myelin sheath, when present, facilitates faster transmission through a process called saltatory conduction, where the action potential jumps between the nodes of Ranvier.
Action potentials are generated on a part of the neuron called the 'axon hillock' - the proximal most portion of the axon.

the longest part of the cell cycle is Interphase
The interphase is the longest.
