... Why is resting HR somewhat slower than the 80 – 100 bpm set by the SA node? a. The AV node slows the heart to an average between its own rate and that of the SA node. b. Parasympathetic innervation slows the HR. c. The AV node takes over causing the HR to be 40 – 60 bpm. d. None of these is correct. ...
