The Atrioventricular Bundle is also known as the Bundle of His. This conducts impulses and divides in ventrical to form fibers of Purkinge .

What structure of the conduction system helps to cause the constriction of the ventricles and extend from the atrioventricular node?

The bundle of His, also known as the atrioventricular bundle, is the structure of the conduction system that helps to coordinate the contraction of the ventricles. It extends from the atrioventricular node and transmits electrical impulses to the Purkinje fibers, which then cause the ventricles to contract simultaneously.


Name the elements of the intrinsic conduction system in order?

1. Sinoatrial node2. Atrioventricular node3. Atrioventricular bundle4. Right and left bundle branches5. Purkinje fibersThis answer may be acceptable for high school, but in university you'll have to go further as such:1. Sinoatrial node2. Posterior, anterior, lateral internodal pathway + Bachmann's bundle3. Penetrating Atrioventircular node4. Distal Atrioventricular node5. Left and right bundle branches of Purkinje fibers (or: left and right Bundles of His)6. Purkinje fibers


What component of the conduction system is located between the ventricles?

The bundle of His is the component of the conduction system located between the ventricles. It is responsible for transmitting electrical signals from the atrioventricular node to the Purkinje fibers in the ventricles.


Another name for the left AV valve?

The left atrioventricular valve is also known as the mitral valve.


The right atrioventricular valve is known as the?

Another name for the right atrioventricular valve is the tricuspid valve. (3 -tri- on the right; 2 on the left/mitral valve)
