Purkinje fibres are connected with the impulse-conducting system of:
- A
Heart
- B
Brain
- C
Skin
- D
Nephron
The correct answer is 'Heart.' Purkinje fibers are specialized conducting fibers located in the heart's ventricular walls and are part of the impulse conducting system of the heart. The other options (Brain, Skin, Nephron) are incorrect as they are not directly connected with Purkinje fibers and their function within the heart.
The Purkinje fibers are specialized conducting fibers located in the inner ventricular walls of the heart, just beneath the endocardium. They are part of the impulse conducting system in the heart.
Although the brain is involved in various functions, it is not directly connected with Purkinje fibers and the impulse conducting system of the heart.
The skin is not connected with the impulse conducting system of Purkinje fibers. Their role is specific to the heart's electrical conduction.
Purkinje fibers are not associated with the nephron or kidney function. Their function is related to the heart's electrical conduction system.
