Factors such as electrolyte concentrations, body temperature,and age all affect cardiac output.
Which one of the following statements about gap junctions or electrical synapses is incorrect? A. Abundant gap junctions between cardiac muscle cells allow coordinated waves of contraction to spread through the heart muscle. B.
