Age Related Changes that Occur in the Cardiovascular System Age Related Changes that Occur in the Cardiovascular System In the normal conduction of the heart the electrical impulse starts in the SA node‚ also called the pacemaker of the heart. The electrical impulse travels through the right atrium and through the Bachmann’s bundle into the left atrium. This stimulates the atria to contract. Next the signal travel to the AV node. The AV node slightly delays the signal. This delay is needed

the banded appearance of cardiac and skeletal muscles. Cardiac Muscle. Found only in the heart‚ cardiac muscle is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. Cardiac muscle tissue cannot be controlled consciously‚ so it is an involuntary muscle. While hormones and signals from the brain adjust the rate of contraction‚ cardiac muscle stimulates itself to contract. The natural pacemaker of the heart is made of cardiac muscle tissue that stimulates other cardiac muscle cells to contract.
