Solution

Answere=

The events associayed with one heart beat is called as cardiac cycle

it lasts for 0.8 seconds

each heart beat includes atrial systole,ventricular systole & joint diastole

atrial systole= during atrial systole deoxygenated blood from right atrium enters right ventricle through atrioventricular aperture the back flow is prevented by tricuspid valve

Oxygenated blood from left atrium enters left ventricle through atrioventricular aperture, back flow prevented by bicuspid valve

it lasts for 0.1 second

Ventricular systole= during ventricular systole deoxygenated blood from right ventricle entersthe pulmonary trunk through which carries blood to lungs for oxygenation

The oxygenated blood from left ventricle enters aorta which carries blood to body parts

It lasts for 0.3 second

Joint diastole= Both atria & ventricles undergo relaxation

it lasts for 0.4 second

The SA node is called pace maker it has the power of genearation of wave contraction

Wave of conduction is carried by cardiac muscle to both atria causing their contraction

Av node= is located in the wall of right atrium near the opening of coronary sinus receives wave of contraction generated by SA node

BUndles of HIS= arises from AV node

the bundle branches give rise to purkinge fibres which penetrates into myocardium of ventricles

purkinje fibres & bundles of HIS conduct wave of contraction from AV node to myocardium of ventricles

Electrocardiogram = is an series of ridges & furrows

It consists of different types waves

1] P wave= Small upward wave represents impulse generated by SA node

It causes atrial depolarisation resulting in atrial contraction

2] QRS complex= begins as downward deflection continuous as alarge upright triangular wave & ends as a downward wave

It represents spreading of impulses from SA node to AV node then bundles of HIS & purkinje fibres

causes ventricular  depolarisation resulting in ventricular contraction

T wave= Is upward wave which represents ventricular repolarisation resulting in ventricular relaxation
