    Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct? I. Bundle of His originates from the SA-node. SA-node is situated in the wall of right auricle. III. Auricular contraction stimulates the AV-node. IV. AV-node sets up the cardiac impulses 72 times per minute. Choose the correct answer.

    Read the following statements and select the correct ones (i) Nodal tissue is specialised cardiac musculature in human heart which has the ability to generate action potential due to an external stimuli (ii) Position of SAN - right corner of right atrium (iii) Position of AVN - right corner of ventricle (iv) AV bundle continues from AVN (v) Purkinje fibres are modified cardiac muscle fibres that originate from the atrioventricular node and spread into the two ventricles.

    Statement 1: Atria receive blood from all parts of the body which subsequently flows to ventricles. Statement 2: Action potential generated at sino-atrial node passes from atria to ventricles.

    Go through the following statements (i) Vagus nerve decreases the rate of impulse formation from the SA node and its conduction (ii) As the human heart is myogenic in nature, the rate of formation and conduction of cariac impulse cannot be changed by the action of nerves (iii) The end of T-wave in ECG marks the end of systole. (iv) If the P-wave in ECG is inverted , it indicates that SA node fails to initiate impulse and the atrial muscle depolarises by the impulse originating in A.V. node. Whic of these are correct ?

    P wave of ECG indicates 1. activation of SA node 2. depolarization of atrial muslces 3. spread of excitation froom AV node ot Purkinje fibres 4. repolarization of atria and depolarization of ventricles
