It controls the heart rate by producing electrical impulses
<h2>EXPLANATION:</h2>
It controls the heart rate by producing electrical impulses and later transmitting electrical signals through the heart muscle, creating the heart to contract and pump blood everywhere into the body. The heartbeat originates from the S.A. node and expands to the walls of auricles which contract.
SA Node<span> which is also known as the sinus node, is the natural pacemaker of
the heart. It controls the heart rate by generating electrical impulses
and then sending electrical signals through the heart muscle, causing
the heart to contract and pump blood throughout the body. </span>
The SA Node is located in the outer layer of the right atrium of the heart, near the superior vena cava. It is made up of a group of cells (myocytes) positioned on the
wall of the right atrium, at the center of the heart and near the
entrance of the superior vena cava. These cells contract at a rate of
about 70-80 times per minute, which make up the natural heart beat.
