Through what means does ablation assist in the treatment of abnormal heart arrhythmia?
A) ablation provides a "jump start" of new electrical conduction from the Bundle of His, stopping the previous rhythm and enabling the heart to begin a new, consistent rhythm
B) ablation destroys cardiac tissue, preventing abnormal electrical signals from traveling through the heart, stopping an arrhythmia
C) ablation promotes inflammation in the epicardial tissue, preventing abnormal electrical signals from traveling through the heart, stopping an arrhythmia
D) ablation destroys the Purkinje fibers that are sending an abnormal electrical impulse, allowing the His-Purkinje system to effectively reset and begin a new, consistent rhythm
