Which part of the neuron is responsible for transmitting electrical
impulses away from the cell body?
A) Dendrite
B) Axon
C) Soma
D) Synapse

D) AV node → Purkinje fibers → SA node → Bundle of His
Answer: B) SA node → AV node → Bundle of His → Purkinje fibers
Rationale: The heart’s conduction system starts at the SA node
(sinoatrial node), which generates the electrical impulse, followed by
the AV node (atrioventricular node), the Bundle of His, and finally the
Purkinje fibers, which distribute the impulse throughout the ventricles.
