The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each statement provided about the heart's physiology and the ECG (electrocardiogram) readings. Let's go through the statements one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement A **Statement A:** "The action potential generated by the SA node stimulates both ventricles to undergo simultaneous contraction." - The SA node (sinoatrial node) is responsible for initiating the heartbeat and generating action potentials that cause the atria to contract. - The action potential does not directly stimulate the ventricles to contract simultaneously; instead, it first causes the atria to contract, and then the impulse travels through the AV node to the ventricles. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement B **Statement B:** "The heart sound Lubb is associated with the closure of both semilunar valves." - The heart sound "Lubb" (S1) is actually associated with the closure of the atrioventricular (AV) valves (mitral and tricuspid valves) at the beginning of ventricular contraction. - The closure of the semilunar valves (aortic and pulmonary valves) is associated with the second heart sound "Dubb" (S2). - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement C **Statement C:** "The QRS complex in ECG represents the depolarization of the ventricles." - The QRS complex on an ECG does indeed represent the depolarization of the ventricles, which leads to ventricular contraction. - This is a well-established fact in cardiac physiology. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. ### Final Evaluation - **Statement A:** Incorrect - **Statement B:** Incorrect - **Statement C:** Correct From our analysis, we find that statements A and B are incorrect, while statement C is correct. Therefore, the appropriate option that reflects this conclusion is: **Correct Answer:** Option 2 (A and B are incorrect, C is correct). ---
