What else can I help you with?
Which structure of the heart provides the stimulation that causes the ventricles to contract?
purkinje fibers
What are the Fibers of the conduction system of the heart?
Fibers of the conduction system of the heart is called Purkinje fibers
What fibers in the heart cause the ventricles to contract?
pukinje fibers
What do node cells of the heart depolarize?
purkinje fibers
The ventricle contraction of the heart occurs iummediately after depolarization of the?
purkinje fibers
In what organ system is the purkinje fibers?
Inner ventricular walls of the heart, beneath the endocardium.
What happens when the heart's electrical impulse reaches the purkinje fibers?
the heart rest and you can really thank God for that one
Are the purkinje fibers commonly known as the natural pacemaker?
No, the purkinje fiber is not the natural pacemaker. The sinoatrial node (SA node) is the natural pacemaker of the heart.
Does ventricular contraction of the heart occur immediately after depolarization of purkinje fibers?
Yes, ventricular contraction occurs shortly after depolarization of the Purkinje fibers. When the Purkinje fibers depolarize, they rapidly conduct electrical impulses throughout the ventricles, leading to synchronized contraction of the ventricular muscle. This contraction, known as ventricular systole, follows the wave of depolarization and is essential for effectively pumping blood out of the heart.
What part of the conduction system of the heart wraps around in the outer walls of the ventricular?
purkinje fibers
The actual contraction of the ventricles of the heart is stimulated by?
Sinoatrial (SA) Node or "Pacemaker"
What part of the intrinsic conduction system of the heart that directly supplies the wall of the ventricle?
Purkinje fibers
