The portion of the ECG that corresponds to atrial depolarization is what? | P wave |
How does the AV node allow more time for the atria to finish contracting? | Cells in the AV node conduct impulses more slowly which allows time for the atrium to finish contracting before the ventricle begins contracting |
How do baroreceptors function? | Baroreceptors detect change in BP and send info to the cardiovascular center |
What does cardiac output measure? | The effectiveness of the heart to pump blood |
Epicardium on the surface of the heart which is a protective layer | Visceral pericardium |

What happens during the Pwave? | Systole: Atrial depolarization "impulse" (something is getting ready to contract) |
What is bradycardia? | Slow heart beat |
