What is the normal total delay of the cardiac impulse in the A-V node + bundle?

A
0.22 second
B
0.18 second
C
0.16 second
D
0.13 second
High-Yield Explanation
The impulse from the S-A node travels rapidly through the internodal pathways and arrives at the A-V node at 0.03 second, at the A-V bundle at 0.12 second, and at the ventricular septum at 0.16 second. The total delay is thus 0.16 second
