    The document provides information about the human heart. It discusses the heart's location in the chest cavity and its four-chambered structure, with two chambers on each side separated by valves. The right side receives deoxygenated blood and pumps it to the lungs, while the left side receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumps it to the body. The heart uses a double circulatory system with oxygenated and deoxygenated blood flows. The cycle involves the heart pumping oxygen-rich blood to the body, and then pumping carbon dioxide-rich blood to the lungs to be re-oxygenated before repeating the cycle.

    Introduction

    It pumpsbloodthrough theblood vesselsof


    thecirculatory system.

    The heart is located in the middle compartment


    of themediastinumin thechest.

    LOCATION OF HEART

    Structure of Heart

    Our heart is 4 chambered.

    There are two chambers on each side


    of the heart.

    Each chamber is separated by a valve,


    which is a flap of tissue that opens and
    closes to keep blood flowing in the right
    direction.

    The Human
    Heart

    Chambers

    The heart has 4 chambers.

    The two upper ones are the Atria, the receiving


    chambers, the two lower are ventricles, the
    discharging chambers.

    The right side of the heart receives de-oxygenated


    blood from the body and pump it to the lungs.

    The left side of the heart receives oxygenated


    blood from the lungs and pump it to the body .

    showing right and left
    ventricles, from
    above

    Valves

    The heart has four valves, which separate its


    chambers.

    The valves ensure blood flows in the correct


    direction through the heart and prevents backflow.

    Between the right atrium and the right ventricle is


    the tricuspid valve.

    Between the left atrium and left ventricle is


    themitral valve.

    The semilunarpulmonary valveis located at


    the base of thepulmonary artery.

    The semilunaraortic valveis at the base of the


    aorta.

    With the atria and major vessels


    removed, all four valves are
    clearly visible

    Blood Vessels

    Vena Cava brings the de-oxygenated blood into the right


    atrium.

    Pulmonary Artery takes the de-oxygenated blood to the lungs


    from right ventricle.

    Pulmonary Vein brings oxygenated into the left atrium.

    Aorta takes out oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the
    body.

    Double Circulation

    We utilize adouble circulatory system.

    This means that we have two loops in our


    body in which blood circulates.

    One isoxygenated, meaning oxygen rich,


    and the other is deoxygenated, which
    means it has little to no oxygen, but a lot of
    carbon dioxide.
    Double circulation

    The Cycle of the Heart

    The blood in our bodies is used over and over


    again.

    Its movement through the heart and around the


    body is called circulation and can be viewed as a
    cycle.

    Beginning at the left side of your heart, fresh,


    clean oxygen-rich blood is pumped around
    our bodies. The cells throughout our bodies take
    the oxygen from the blood and use it as fuel to
    work and grow.

    The Cycle of the Heart

    The cells create carbon dioxide and other


    wastes that must be removed to keep the
    cells healthy.

    The blood is responsible for picking up


    the waste, delivering it to the kidneys where,
    except for the carbon dioxide, it is removed
    from the body.

    The kidneys are


    responsible for
    cleansing of blood.

    The Cycle of the Heart

    Then the blood, with its load of carbon dioxide,


    returns to the right side of the heart.
    The right side of the heart pumps the blood to the
    lungs to get rid of the carbon dioxide and to pick
    up fresh oxygen.
    The oxygen-rich blood goes back to the left side of
    the heart and is then pumped around the body to
    complete the cycle.
    This all happens in less than a minute!!

    Amazing Facts about Heart


    A

    human heart is roughly the size of a large fist.

    The

    heart weighs between about 10 to 12 ounces (280 to 340


    grams) in men and 8 to 10 ounces (230 to 280 grams) in
    women.

    The

    heart beats about 100,000 times per day (about 3 billion


    beats in a lifetime).

    An

    adult heart beats about 60 to 80 times per minute.

    New-borns'

    hearts beat faster than adult hearts, about 70 to


    190 beats per minute.

    The

    heart pumps about 6 quarts (5.7 litres) of blood


    throughout the body.
