Jason was less the virtuous demi-God we see in Odysseus

Action potential‚ impulse conduction (italics)‚ and cardiac cycle (bold) Pacemaker cells in the SA node‚ found in the wall of right atrium‚ begin as polarized‚ with Na+ on the outside of the cell (sarcolemma) and the cell at its resting potential (-80 mV in the atria‚ -90 mV in the ventricles). The atria are full or filling with blood. The SA (and technically the AV) nodal cells gradually drift towards their threshold after each repolarization and depolarize (the prepotential: spontaneous depolarization)
