Answer» RIGHT choice is (c) lower part of the heart wall between the TWO atrial To explain I would say: The AV node is located in the lower part of the wall between the two atria. The AV node DELAYS the spread of excitation for about 0.12s, due to the presence of a fibrous barrier of non-excitable cells that effectively prevent its propagation from continuing BEYOND the limits of stria. |
