True because when your heart is out of sync it’s commonly known when he atria (top of your heart) is going faster that your ventricles(bottom ones). It is also known had a abnormal heart rate, arrhythmia or third degree heart block

The right answer is True

Reason:

AV nodal block (also known as "heart block"), occurs when conduction between the atria and the ventricles is impaired due to damage of the specialized conducting tissue.
