Describe the physiological events occurring in the heart muscle represented by each ECG component (the P wave, QRS complex, and

T wave). Why does the QRS complex have the largest amplitude?

Sauron [17]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

  • <em>The P wave</em><em> represents the atrial depolarization (sum of the right and left atriums) and the atrial contraction.</em> In normal circumstances, the P wave is smooth and rounded (<2.5 mm) and no more than 0.12 seconds in duration. It's the first positive deflection (you can see this in the image I added)
  • <em>QRS complex</em> can include the Q wave, R wave, and S wave, but there are exceptions. <em>It represents the electrical impulse through the ventricles causing the ventricular depolarization.</em> <em>Its amplitude is the largest because ventricles are the chambers with the largest mass in the heart </em>and it has a duration of 0.06-0.10 seconds in adults.
  • <em>The T wave</em> is the positive deflection that follows the QRS complex, it represents the ventricular repolarization. It is slightly asymmetric (peak closer to its end). Normally this wave follows the QRS complex's direction, if this doesn't happen, it's reflecting a cardiac pathology.

What factor determines when an animal species will enter an ecosystem in succession? a. minerals b. food availability c. competi
Karolina [17]

The correct answer is (C) competition which determines the succession of an animal in the ecosystem.

<h3>What factors influence when an animal species enters a successional ecosystem?</h3>

Interaction and competition among species in a certain environment is a biotic element of ecological primary succession. When succession begins and the first species, known as pioneer species, alter the environmental structure, new species that are more tolerant of the new conditions move in.

These communities gradually replace one another until a "climax community"—such as a mature forest—is attained or a disturbance, such as a fire, occurs.

The following image shows a cell before and during the process of mitosis. Before it undergoes mitosis, the cell contains 2n chr
svlad2 [7]

The correct answer is B: The cells will have 2n chromosomes and be diploid.

Diploid cell have two of each chromosome, one from each parent. When diploid cell undergoes mitosis, the result is two identical diploid cells (when haploid cell undergoes mitosis the result is haploid cell). This means that during the mitosis, cells reproduce genetically identical copies of themselves.

Passive transport is the net movement of substances down a concentration gradient that requires metabolic energy. Active transpo
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

Passive transport moves molecules from one side of the membrane to the other with the energy of the chemical gradient (or concentration gradient). Otherwise, active transport uses the hydrolyzation of ATP to gain energy in order to move molecules across the membrane without taking into account the gradient.
