  2. Floral diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_diagram

    A floral diagram is a graphic representation of the structure of a flower. It shows the number of floral organs, their arrangement and fusion. Different parts of the flower are represented by their respective symbols. Floral diagrams are useful for flower identification or can help in understanding angiosperm evolution.

  3. Bundle of His - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_of_His

    The bundle of His (BH) [1]: 58 or His bundle (HB) [1]: 232 (/ h ɪ s / "hiss" [2]) is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction.As part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, it transmits the electrical impulses from the atrioventricular node (located between the atria and the ventricles) to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches via the ...

  4. Purkinje fibers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purkinje_fibers

    The Purkinje fibers are further specialized to rapidly conduct impulses (having numerous fast voltage-gated sodium channels and mitochondria, and fewer myofibrils, than the surrounding muscle tissue). Purkinje fibers take up stain differently from the surrounding muscle cells because of having relatively fewer myofibrils than other cardiac cells.

  5. Cardiac muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_muscle

    Cardiac muscle (also called heart muscle or myocardium) is one of three types of vertebrate muscle tissues, the others being skeletal muscle and smooth muscle. It is an involuntary, striated muscle that constitutes the main tissue of the wall of the heart .

  6. Floral morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_morphology

    Diagram of flower parts. In botany, floral morphology is the study of the diversity of forms and structures presented by the flower, which, by definition, is a branch of limited growth that bears the modified leaves responsible for reproduction and protection of the gametes, called floral pieces.

  7. Cardiac conduction system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_conduction_system

    The Purkinje fibers transmit the signals more rapidly to stimulate contraction of the ventricles. [2] The conduction system consists of specialized heart muscle cells, situated within the myocardium. [3] There is a skeleton of fibrous tissue that surrounds the conduction system which can be seen on an ECG.

  8. Floral formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_formula

    Floral formulae are one of the two ways of describing flower structure developed during the 19th century, the other being floral diagrams. [2] The format of floral formulae differs according to the tastes of particular authors and periods, yet they tend to convey the same information. [1] A floral formula is often used along with a floral diagram.

  9. File:Floral diagram and plant material.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Floral_diagram_and...

    English: Relation of plant material to the Floral diagram. Black dashed line represents the cross-section. 1 – main axis relative to the flower; 2 – cross-section through the flower, which makes the most important part of the diagram, 3 – bracteole, 4 – subtending bract. The rounded lines connecting sepals represent calyx appendages.
