Solution

The correct option is C Sinus venosus
In amphibians, such as the frog, the pacemaker is the sinus venosus, an enlarged region between the vena cava and the right atrium. The venae cavae do not open directly into the auricles but into another chamber, the sinus venosus, which drains into the right auricle.
