It is important because acupuncture points are places where nerves, muscles, and connective tissue can be stimulated. The stimulation increases blood flow, while also triggering the activity of the body's natural painkillers.

Acupuncture has also been proven effective to help the following conditions:

High and low blood pressure, painful periods, morning sickness, dental pain, tennis elbow, inducing labor, reducing the risk of stroke etc.

It also helps knee, back and neck pain, as well as headaches and migraines.

hope this helps!

Neko [114]

Answer:

1. spontaneously

2. resting potential

3. action potentials

4. pacemaker potentials

5. K+

6. Na+

7. into

8. Ca+

Explanation:

Pacemaker cells (also known as sinoatrial node cells) are cells that generate rhythmic impulses and set the pace for blood pumping in the heart. These cells have the ability to rhythmically depolarize and initiate action potentials. In pacemaker cells, Ca2+  and Na+ levels are higher in the extracellular environment, while K+ concentration is higher intracellularly. The pacemaker action potentials have three phases: 1-depolarization, where membrane potential reaches -40 mV and voltage-gated Ca2+ channels open, 2-repolarization, where voltage-gated Ca2+ channels close and voltage-gated K+ channels open, and finally 3-gradual depolarization, which is caused by the slow influx of Na+ ions.
