Why does the heart have the Bundle of His and the Purkinje fibers?

The bundle of His and the Purkinje fibres are part of the conduction system of the heart. In order to pump blood around the body, the heart muscle must contract (atria first to fill the ventricles, then ventricles contract to send the blood around the body.) The conduction system starts in the sinoatrial node (SA node) which is also known as the hearts natural pacemaker and is located at the top of the right atrium. The impulse is then sent to the atrioventricular node (AV node) located by the junction between the atria and ventricles. The next part of the conduction system is the bundle of His which sends the impulse from the atria to the ventricles. The purkinje fibres then spread through the ventricles. As the impulse passes through each part of the conduction system, that part of the heart is excited and the heart muscle contracts, which gives the pumping action of the heart.


How can you distinguish between an atrioventicular valve and a semivunar valve in the heart?

The atrioventricular valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. The semilunar valves are located between the ventricles and the arteries leaving the heart.


Where is the septum located in the heart?

The septum is located between the left and right ventricles.


Flaps of connective tissue called valves are located between the atria and the ventricles?

TRUE


Which coronary artery is located between the 2 ventricles?

The left coronary artery, or the anterior interrventricular branch supplies oxygenated blood between both ventricles. It runs straight down the center of the heart.


Where is a VSD located in the heart?

VSD stands for ventricular septal defect. So a VSD is located in the septum (wall) between the two ventricles.


What component is located between the cylinder head and the block?

A gasket.


Where are Semilunar valves located?

There are actually two. The aortic and pulmonary semi-lunar valves are located at the exit of their corresponding ventricles (of the heart) and open to allow blood to exit the heart


What is the group of cells that adjust the speed heart beat?

The bundle of His is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction that transmits the http://wiki.answers.com/index.php/Action_potentialfrom the http://wiki.answers.com/index.php/AV_node(located between the atria and the ventricles) to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches. The fascicular branches then lead to the http://wiki.answers.com/index.php/Purkinje_fiberswhich innervate the ventricles, causing the http://wiki.answers.com/index.php/Cardiac_muscleof the ventricles to contract at a paced interval.I copy pasted this here, because I thought it was the bundle of His, and this does talk about how they do to electrical conduction. Is this what you are looking for?


Where in the heart are the bicuspid and tricuspid valves located?

The bicuspid and tricuspid valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. The bicuspid or mitral valve is on the left, and the tricuspid is on the right.


What is located in the third and forth ventricles?

What are the functions of the atria and the ventricles of the heart?

Atria is the receiving chamber and it is located at the top while ventricles are the one responsible for pumping blood out of the heart either to oxygenate the blood or to deliver it into our systems and it is located at the bottom part of the heart
