spontaneous depolarization/rise to threshold occurs due to
|
channels that open and allow Na+ in
aka pacemaker potentials |
|
at threshold...
|
Na+ channels close and fast voltage regulated Ca+ channels open and rapid depolarization occurs
|
|
Repolaridation is due to
|
voltage rgulated K+ Channels opening and K+ flowing out
|
|
platau phase is due to
|
voltage regulated Ca+ channels opening (inofming) during repolarization
incomoing Ca_ ions offset exiting K+ ions, leveling of positive ions... good becuase it does not permit muscle to have tetany |
|
repolarization is caused by
|
slow ca+ channels closing and K+ channels opening
|
|
norepinephrine is released from sympathetic nerves and bind to betea andrenergenic receptors
|
results in increased heart rate due to opening Ca+ channels which make reaching threshold easeier. Increased Ca+ also cause stronger contractions
|
|
aceytolcholine
|
hyperolarizes SA node by opening chemically regulated K+ channels and closign fast Ca+ channels making insisde of cell more negative... harder to reach threshold... heart rate slows
