What lobe is it in: an area of the brain, located in the parietal lobe, that processes sensory input from the skin, muscles, and joints. What lobe is it in: cortical region where motor information to skeletal muscle groups originates. The sa node consists of a cluster of cells that are situated in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium (the right upper chamber of the heart). The electrical impulses are generated there: what is the av node, controls the heart rate, is one of the major elements in the cardiac conduction system. The av node serves as an electrical relay station, slowing the electrical current sent by the sinoatrial (sa) node before the signal is permitted to pass down through to the ventricles.
