Yes this is true. The Punnett square can be used for such purposes
SA Node<span> which is also known as the sinus node, is the natural pacemaker of
the heart. It controls the heart rate by generating electrical impulses
and then sending electrical signals through the heart muscle, causing
the heart to contract and pump blood throughout the body. </span>
The SA Node is located in the outer layer of the right atrium of the heart, near the superior vena cava. It is made up of a group of cells (myocytes) positioned on the
wall of the right atrium, at the center of the heart and near the
entrance of the superior vena cava. These cells contract at a rate of
about 70-80 times per minute, which make up the natural heart beat.
During stressful situations the sympathetic nervous system is activated <span />

Answer:
X is negative heterotropic modulator
Explanation:
In allosteric regulations, modulators are molecules that causes a change in the conformation of an enzyme, hence, resulting a change in enzyme activity. It can lead to a decrease or an increase of the enzyme. When a molecule decreases the enzyme activity it called a negative modulator, when it increases or activates the enzyme activity, it is called a positive modulator.
A positive or negative modulator can either be homotrophic (substrate acts as modulator) or heterotropic (another ligand acts as modulator).
In the example above, X is negative heterotropic modulator, because the modulator is different from the substrate and it also decreases the enzyme activity.
