    • Heart anatomy. The heart has five surfaces: base (posterior), diaphragmatic (inferior), sternocostal (anterior), and left and right pulmonary surfaces. It also has several margins: right, left, superior, and inferior
    • Heart valves. Heart valves separate atria from ventricles, and ventricles from great vessels. The valves incorporate two or three leaflets (cusps) around the atrioventricular orifices and the roots of great vessels.
    • Blood flow through the heart. The blood flow through the heart is quite logical. It happens with the heart cycle, which consists of the periodical contraction and relaxation of the atrial and ventricular myocardium (heart muscle tissue).
    • Coronary circulation. The heart must also be supplied with oxygenated blood. This is done by the two coronary arteries: left and right. Heart muscles work constantly (thank goodness!)

    Nov 10, 2024 · The heart is a four-chambered muscular organ with a complex structure that allows it to efficiently pump blood throughout the body. It is divided into two halves—the right and left sides—each responsible for different aspects of circulation. The heart consists of four chambers: the right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, and left ventricle.

    Aug 3, 2023 · The surface projections of the heart represent points on the thoracic wall that map out the outline and valves of the heart. These include four borders (superior, right, inferior, left) and four valves (left atrioventricular, right atrioventricular, aortic, pulmonary).

    The heart is a transport system pump that delivers blood to the body through blood vessels. The right side of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from body tissues and pumps it to the lungs where it picks up oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide.
