![**Calculate the Heart Rate: This is a 6-Second Strip**
In the image, there is an electrocardiogram (ECG) strip depicting a 6-second interval of heart activity. The ECG strip is marked with several regular peaks, known as QRS complexes, which represent the heartbeats.
**Graph Explanation:**
- The graph is a grid with horizontal and vertical lines representing time and electrical activity, respectively.
- The QRS complexes are the tallest peaks and indicate ventricular depolarization, corresponding to heartbeats.
- Each small square on the graph represents a specific time interval, typically 0.04 seconds.
**Task:**
Calculate the heart rate based on the number of QRS complexes within this 6-second interval.
**Multiple Choice Options:**
- [ ] 80
- [ ] 40
- [ ] 120
- [ ] 60
To calculate beats per minute (BPM), count the number of QRS complexes in the strip and multiply by 10.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F950ccb0b-88f0-424e-a789-46ed3bd2a086%2F94a1105a-ba44-4710-8c11-bcf95a9bfdcf%2Fgdqz35_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
