TRUE FALSE STATEMENTS When the atrioventricular bundle is completely interrupted, the ventricles typically contract at 30 to 40 beats/minute. The left ventricular wall of the heart is thicker than the right wall in order to pump blood with a greater pressure. Impulses through the conduction system of the heart follow the ordered path SA Node ->Conduction Myofibers ->AV Bundle ->AV Node.arrow_forwardTrace the journey of a drop of blood starting from the right atrium, continuing to the right thumb, and returning to the right atrium. This would include a trip through the heart. Be sure to identify both the arterial and venous vessels as well as all of the relevant structures within the heart. Considering the online nature of this exam, drawings are not required. Simply type in the order of structures with a dash (-) between structures.arrow_forward
