Which of the following is true? Electrical impulses in the heart cause the muscles to contract. The time of electrical recovery

in the ventricles before a new heartbeat starts is known as ventricular depolarization. Muscle tissue in most body organs are able to stimulate their own contractions. The waves in the ECG cycle represent the number of heartbeats.

Answer:

The correct answer is: Electrical impulses in the heart cause the muscles to contract.

Explanation:

The heart contracts thanks to a series of electrical impulses that travel through the muscles of this organ. The electrical impulse begins in the SA (sinoatrial) node and is transmitted to the muscles that conform the left and the right atria to produce their contraction which will make the atria pump the blood to the ventricles. When the electrical impulse reaches the AV node and then the Bundle of His, this information will transmit to both ventricles and will produce their contraction as well.

The only muscle tissue capable of stimulating their own contractions is the muscle in the heart, the myocardium, thanks to the existence of "pacemaker cells" that are located in the SA node.

The waves in the ECG represent the depolarization of the atria, depolarization of the ventricles, and repolarization of the ventricles.

It affects the resources because it could damage or use them all. like in a desert animals might compete for a watering hole. or if there are a lot of herbivores in one area then some other predatorsmight come and then it would be a battle ground and without the herbivores then some things will grow out of control and then it might not be suitable for living.
