what occurs during the P wave | Arterial contraction |
QRS wave relaxes or contracts atrium | relaxes |
QRS complex repolarizes | arterial |
QRS complex depolarizes | ventricle |
During a P wave contraction what is filling with blood | ventricle |
arterial depolarization occurs in the | P wave |
Ventricle depolarization occurs in the | QRS complex |
Ventricle repolarization occurs in the | T wave |
The ventricle does what during the T wave | relaxes |
