The P wave is represented by which portion of the conduction system?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The P wave in an electrocardiogram (ECG) represents atrial depolarization. The SA (sinoatrial) node is known as the natural pacemaker of the heart and initiates the electrical impulse that leads to atrial contraction. Therefore, the P wave is represented by the SA node, which is located in the right atrium near the entrance of the superior vena cava.
