Answer to Question 1

The normal ST segment begins at the isoelectric line, extends from the end of the S wave, and curves gradually upward to the beginning of the T wave. In the limb leads, the normal ST segment is isoelectric (flat) but may normally be slightly elevated or depressed (usually by less than 1 mm).

Answer to Question 2

B
Complete occlusion of the left main coronary artery, also referred to as the widow maker, usually results in sudden death.
