Answer to Question 1

A
On the ECG, the P wave represents atrial depolarization and the QRS complex represents ventricular depolarization.

Answer to Question 2

C
The movement of charged particles across a cell membrane causing the inside of the cell to become positive is called depolarization. Depolarization must take place before the heart can mechanically contract and pump blood.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
