In a standard ECG, which one of the following alphabets is the correct representation of the respective activity of the human heart?
Options
- AR-repolarisation of ventricles
- BS-start of systole
- CT-end of diastole
- DP-depolarisation of the atria
Correct answer
D. P-depolarisation of the atria
Step-by-step solution
In ECG, P-wave indicates impulse of contraction generated by SA-node and it spreads in atria causing atrial depolarisation. T-wave is the most constant and conspicuous wave having the tallest amplitude. It is the first positive deflection during ventricular depolarisation. S-wave is the next downward deflection constant but often inconspicuous. T-wave is repolarisation wave of ventricular relaxation.
