Solution

The correct option is C SA node, AV node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibre
The correct answer is option C.
Human heart is myogenic heart. It has a specialized tissue for initiation and conduction of the cardiac impulses. The cardiac impulse begins at the Sino-atrial node or SA node also called pace maker of the heart. From the SA node the impulse passes to the AV node and then Bundle of His or AV bundle and finally reaches Purkinje fibres.
so the correct order is SA node, AV node , AV bundle , Purkinje fibres.
