Question

The _____ sends out an electrical impulse that regulates the heartbeat.

Answer 1

The SA nodes sends out electrical impulses that regulates the heartbeat. The SA also called the sinus node generates the electrical signals which moves from cell to cell down through the heart until it reaches the atrioventricular node, a cluster of cells situated in the center of the heart between the atria and ventricles. In other words, SA nodes controls the heart rate by generating electrical impulses and then sending signals through the heart muscle, causing the heart to contract and pump blood throughout the body.
