How do Electrophysiological Properties Vary Among Different Tissues?
Different tissues exhibit unique electrophysiological properties based on their function. For example, cardiac tissue has specialized conduction pathways and pacemaker cells that regulate heart rhythm. Skeletal muscle fibers exhibit rapid action potentials that trigger contraction. Neuronal tissues show a wide range of electrophysiological behaviors to facilitate complex processes like sensory perception, motor control, and cognition.
