Assertion : An artificial pacemaker can replace the SA node of heart. Reasoning : This is because an artificial pacemaker is capable of stimulating the heart electrically to maintain its beats.

Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: (a) If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion (b) If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion (c) If the assertion is true but the reason is false (d) If both the assertion and reason are false (e) If the assertion is false but reason is true Assertion : An artifical pacemaker can replace the sinoatrial node of heart. Reason : This is because, an artifical pacemaker is capable of stimulating the heart electrically to maintain its beats.

a. SAN generates as action potential which stimulates atrial systole. b. ECG is an electrical representation of the graphical activity of the heart during a cardiac cycle. c. The cardiac output of a normal man will be much lesser than an athlete. d. The wall of right ventricle is much thicker than the left ventricle e. In pisces the two separate circulatory pathways are present, hence they have double circulation. f. The clsoed circulatory pattern is considered to be more advantageous than open circulatory pattern. g. Glucose is absorbed by simple diffusion through lymph in lacteales present in the intestinal villi. h. The SAN can generate the maximum number of action potential i.e. 140-150 mi n^(-1) in neonates, and is responsible for initiation and maintenance of the rhythmic contractile activity of the heart. i. Angina can occur in any age but more common among the neonates and infants. j. heart failure is sometimes called congestive heart failure because congestion of the blood vessels is one of the main symptoms of this disease.
