1. The sinoatrial (SA) node
2. The atrioventricular (AV) node
3. The atrioventricular (AV) bundle
4. The Purkinje fibers

receives the action potential from the AV node

located in the upper wall of the right atrium

are large‐diameter fibers that conduct the action potential

located near the lower region of the interatrial septum,

transmits the impulse to the ventricles by way of the right and left bundle branches

initiates the cardiac cycle by generating an action potential that spreads through both atria through the gap junctions of the cardiac muscle fibers

receives the action potential generated by the SA node.

A slight delay of the electrical transmission occurs here, allowing the atria to fully contract before the action potential is passed on to the ventricles

the interventricular septum, down to the apex, and then upward through the ventricles
