Sinoatrial node Ca into the cell), and the activation of potassium channels, which allows the flow of K out of the cell, making the membrane potential more negative. Heart rate depends on the rate at which the sinoatrial node produces action potentials. At rest, heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute. This is a result of the activity of two sets of nerves, one acting to slow down action potential production (these are parasympathetic nerves) and the other acting to speed up action potential production (sympathetic nerves). The sympathetic nerves begin in the thoracic region of the spinal cord
Node deletion nodes are deleted compared to the random removal case. The diameter is doubled when 5% of the nodes are eliminated. This is because removing the hubs seriously changes the topology of the network, most links are removed, so the diameter goes up. Node deletion Node deletion is the procedure of removing a node from a network, where the node is either chosen randomly or directly. Node deletion is used to test the robustness and the attack tolerance of networks. Understanding how a network changes in response to node deletion is critical in many empirical networks. Application varies across many fields,
