    • Last name starts with P-T = Heart rate and heart rhythm
    • Last name starts with U-Z = T wave   
  • Describe and explain your assigned component in relation to the heart’s physiology. Discuss what this represents for the heart function. Make sure to relate this to the cardiac cycle and the cardiac conduction system.
  • Pick a homeostatic imbalance that can disrupt your assigned component. Describe this condition. Discuss how this imbalance will change your assigned component of the EKG. Discuss the implications on the function of the organ and organ system.
