Answer to Question 1

C
The AV node and the nonbranching portion of the bundle of His are called the AV junction. The bundle of His has pacemaker cells that are capable of discharging at a rhythmic rate of 40 to 60 beats/min.

Answer to Question 2

C
Nonparoxysmal (i.e., gradual onset) junctional tachycardia usually starts as an accelerated junctional rhythm, but the heart rate gradually increases to more than 100 beats/min. The usual ventricular rate for nonparoxysmal junctional tachycardia is 101 to 140 beats/min.
