The SA node is the heart's natural pacemaker. The SA node consists of a cluster of cells that are situated in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium (the right upper chamber of the heart). The electrical impulses are generated there. The SA node is also called the sinus node.


shereef4me: hope it helps
SreeVi03: Thanks a lot
shereef4me: plz mark as brainliest
shereef4me: and ur welcom
SreeVi03: Can you be more specific of what type of tissue it is made of
shereef4me: This means that the SA node cells are less equipped to contract compared to the atrial and ventricular cells. Action potentials pass from one cardiac cell to the next through pores known as gap junctions. These gap junctions are made of proteins called connexins.
SreeVi03: Thanks a lot again

SreeVi03: You surely did give the brainliest answer

Answer:

This electrical signal begins in the sinoatrial (SA) node, located at the top of the heart's upper-right chamber (the right atrium). The SA node is sometimes called the heart's “natural pacemaker.”
