the ventricles.
The P wave corresponds to atrial depolarization, specifically the spread of electrical impulses through the atria causing them to contract and pump blood into the ventricles. This is the first wave in an electrocardiogram (ECG) and represents the beginning of the cardiac cycle.
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.

Non-depolarizing neuromuscular blockers are a type of medication that work by blocking acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction, leading to muscle relaxation. They do not cause depolarization of the muscle membrane and are often used during surgical procedures to induce muscle paralysis. Examples include vecuronium and rocuronium.
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.

No, depolarization refers to the change in electrical charge within a cell, specifically during the initiation of an action potential. Contraction refers to the shortening or tightening of muscle fibers, which is a separate physiological process that can be triggered by depolarization in muscle cells.
Opening of these channels leads to depolarization of the motor endplate, which triggers the release of neurotransmitters (such as acetylcholine) from synaptic vesicles. This initiates the muscle contraction process by activating the muscle fibers.
Electrical excitation of a muscle fiber. Skeletal muscle fibers (cells) can be stimulated either by amotor neuron in the body or by a voltage stimulator in the lab. Stimulation given by either method results in a depolarization of the sarcolemma. If the depolarization reaches threshold, an action potential (electrical signal) is initiated.

The QRS complex is normally larger than the P Wave because depolarization of the larger muscle mass of the ventricles generates more voltage than does depolarization of the smaller muscle mass of the atria
