You scored 100% by answering 4 out of 4 questions correctly.

1. Extreme vagus nerve stimulation affects the heart by


You correctly answered: a. stopping the heart completely.

2. Vagal escape probably involves


You correctly answered: c. sympathetic reflexes.

3. Research shows that, in the absence of neural and hormonal influences, the SA node generates action potentials at a
frequency of approximately 100 times per minute. However, the resting heart rate is approximately 70 beats per minute,
which suggests that
You correctly answered: b. the parasympathetic nervous system has more control over heart rate.

You correctly answered: c. in the right atrium

Review Sheet Results
1. Explain the effect that extreme vagus nerve stimulation had on the heart. How well did the results compare with your
prediction?
Your answer:
Denyut jantung menurun dan menghentikan jantung untuk sementara. Prediksi saya benar.
Sherwood L. 2014. Fisiologi Manusia. Jakarta: EGC.

2. Explain two ways that the heart can overcome excessive vagal stimulation.
Your answer:
Jantung dapat mengatasi rangsangan vagal berlebihan dengan menggunakan refleks simpatik dan inisiasi irama oleh Serat
Purkinje.
Sherwood L. 2014. Fisiologi Manusia. Jakarta: EGC.

3. Describe how the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems work together to regulate heart rate.
Your answer:
Simpatik meningkatkan denyut jantung. Parasimpatis menurunkan denyut jantung.
Sherwood L. 2014. Fisiologi Manusia. Jakarta: EGC.

4. What do you think would happen to the heart rate if the vagus nerve was cut?
Your answer:
denyut jantung akan terus meningkat dan tidak pernah diatur.
