and there's this pathway.
-
The heart has something like a nervous system
-
in that this black region here is a pathway
-
that's called the cardiac conduction system.
-
It consists of several important points.
-
The first is called the sinoatrial node or SA node
-
and it's in the right atrium.
-
The next point is the atrial ventricular node
-
which sits on a fibrous substance called the septum
-
which separates the atria from the ventricles.
-
The heart is kind of tilted to one side,
-
it's not straight up and down,
