It is the natural pacemaker of the heart, generating electrical impulses that initiate each heartbeat. The mammalian heart&#8217;s ability to generate its own impulse is referred to as its myogenic nature.<\/section>\n<section id=\"pyq-additional-information\">The SA node impulse spreads through the atria, causing them to contract, and then reaches the atrioventricular (AV) node, which conducts the impulse to the ventricles. The QRS wave and T wave are graphical representations of electrical activity in the ventricles during an electrocardiogram (ECG). The hepatic portal system is part of the circulatory system involved in blood transport from the digestive organs to the liver.<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The mammalian heart is myogenic and it is regulated by nerves.
