Answer to Question 1

B
The inferior wall of the left ventricle is supplied by the right coronary artery in most people. If an ECG shows changes in leads II, III, and aVF, the inferior wall is affected, and it is reasonable to suppose that these ECG changes are due to partial or complete blockage of the right coronary artery.

Answer to Question 2

D
Capture is the successful conduction of an artificial pacemaker's impulse through the myocardium, resulting in depolarization.
