The cardiac conduction system is a group of specialized cardiac muscle cells in the walls of the heart that send signals to the heart muscle causing it to contract. The main components of the cardiac conduction system are the SA node, AV node, bundle of His, bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers.

MUSCLE TISSUE: Muscle tissue is important for movement and is highly vascular to meet its energy demands. They are highly excitable cells specialized for contraction. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth and, cardiac. Refer to individual pictures for detailed descriptions.

Cardiac muscle

Skeletal, Smooth, and Cardiac muscles

Cardiac muscle tissue is striated, branched, and has 1-2 nuclei. Cardiac muscle tissue can be recognized by intercalated disks (dark thickened part). Electrical signals at these junctions allow a wave of excitation from cell to cell, aiding in the function of the heart (see chapter 19 for more details). Cardiac muscle cells, commonly called myocytes or cardiomyocytes, are bigger than smooth muscle cells and smaller than skeletal muscle cells. They control involuntary movement (the heart).

Cardiac muscle, large centrally located nuclei, intercalated disks

Cardiocytes, which make up cardiac muscle of the heart. Typically, each cell has one nucleus surrounded in glycogen and an abundant of mitochondria. We see prominent striations, and notches at the end of cells called intercalated discs. These discs allow for connection and communication between the cells. Its 3 features include: interdigitating folds to increase SA, fascia adherens and desmosomes that serve as mechanical junctions and lastly, gap junctions which serve as an electrical…
