The P-wave of an ECG represents
AAtrial repolarisation hidden in QRS
BAtrial depolarisation before contraction
CVentricular depolarisation before contraction
DVentricular repolarisation at end systole
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Atrial depolarisation before contraction
P-wave = atrial depolarisation that initiates atrial contraction.
QRS complex = ventricular depolarisation initiating ventricular contraction.
T-wave = ventricular repolarisation.
