Answer:

decrease depolarization of the cell

Explanation:

Dysrhythmias is also known as cardiac dysrhythmias, which can be described as an irregular heartbeat, that is an abnormal rhythm of the heartbeat, which may be due to the changes in the heart's normal sequence of electrical impulses.

The following has been described as the things that can cause dysrhythmias,

*Coronary artery disease.

*Electrolyte imbalances in your blood (such as sodium or potassium).

*Changes in your heart muscle.

*Injury from a heart attack.

*Healing process after heart surgery.

*Irregular heart rhythms can also occur in "normal, healthy" hearts

Some of its symptoms are

Pounding in your chest.

Dizziness or feeling light-headed.

Fainting.

Shortness of breath.

Chest discomfort

It should be understood that, Beta-blockers such as metoprolol or Toprol XL and Calcium channel blockers such as verapamil or Calan can be used as medications for treatment.

How might low levels of iron affect the bloods ability to transport oxygen
kirill115 [55]
The red blood cells have proteins, hemoglobin and myoglobin, that are responsible for the storage of oxygen from the lungs and transporting it through the body. When the hemoglobin and myoglobin are low, it is because the iron levels are low. When this occurs, the blood, which carries the oxygen, reduces the ability to process its work.  When this occurs, anemia, a condition that may cause chest pain, tiredness, and headaches.
