Draw these five graphs on the same set of axes: atrial autorhythmic cell action potential atrial cardiac contractile cell action potential ventricular autorhythmic cell action potential ventricular cardiac contractile cell action potential ventricular myocardial muscle tension
Expert Solution
Step 1

Cardiac muscle action potential- During the action potential there is passing of electrical signals through the cells by gap junction, the cardiac potential is originated from the sinoatrial node which is responsible for the change in the membrane potential and causes the contraction of cells.
