  • 80 mm Hg (correct)
  • 110 mm Hg
  • 90 mm Hg
  • 60 mm Hg
  • What is the reason why the SA node acts as the heart’s pacemaker?

    Study Notes

    Blood Pressure

    • Normal diastolic blood pressure in a healthy adult human is 60-90 mmHg.

    Heart's Pacemaker

    • The SA node acts as the heart's pacemaker because it has the ability to generate impulses at a faster rate than other parts of the heart.

    Skeletal System

    • The skeletal system does not function as an excretory system.

    Ventricular Muscles

    • Ventricular muscles accept impulses directly from the Bundle of His.

    Blood Disorders

    • Sickle cell anemia is a blood disorder where the hemoglobin is defective.
