How does the movement of the electrical impulse relate to the contraction of the chambers of the heart?

Biology

seraphim [82]3 years ago

Answer:

the electrical impulses get sent through the conduction pathways which cause ventricles to contract and this allows heart to pump blood.

Explanation:

The electrical impulse starts in a small bundle of specialized cells located in the right atrium, called the SA node. The electrical activity spreads through the walls of the atria and causes them to contract. This forces blood into the ventricles.

And it should be understood that, an electrical stimulus is generated by the sinus node (also called the sinoatrial node, or SA node). The electrical stimulus travels down through the conduction pathways and causes the heart's ventricles to contract and pump out blood.

larisa [96]

Answer:

II. meiosis

III. fertilization

IV. gametes

Explanation:

Gamete formation and fertilization are the processes performed by all the sexually reproducing organisms. Gametes are the cells that are formed in the male and female sexual organs of these organisms. Formation of gametes occurs by meiosis and therefore, the gametes of a diploid organism are always haploid.

Male and female gametes fuse during the process of fertilization and form the zygote which in turn divide repeatedly to produce an embryo. For instance, sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes that are formed in testes and ovaries of male and female human individuals respectively. The fusion of sperm and egg produces a zygote that finally develops into a young one.

jok3333 [9.3K]
Answer - D
Gametes always have half the number of chromosomes compared to the somatic cells, hence an unfertilized egg would have half the chromosomes from the mother, and a fertilized egg will contain diploid number of chromosomes. Half of them from inherited from each of the two parents.
