FUNCTIONS OF THE HEART

Arterial blood (red, oxygen-rich blood) flows from the heart to each part of the body to provide oxygen and nutrients. The venous blood (blue, oxygen-poor blood) returns from the body to the heart. The blood then travels through the lungs to exchange carbon dioxide for new oxygen. The heart is a pump, which moves the blood. The arteries and veins are the pipes through which the blood flows. The lungs provide a place to exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen.

THE CHAMBERS OF THE HEART

The heart is a hollow, muscular organ, which functions as a pump for the movement of blood through the body. The flow of blood through the four chambers of the heart is regulated by valves. The heart valves function like one-way doors which allow blood flow through in the forward direction but prevent the backward flow of blood. Venous blood returns from the body to the right side of the heart which pumps the blood to the lungs. The oxygen-rich blood returns from the lungs to the left side of the heart. The left side of the heart pumps blood to the entire body. As you would expect, the left side of the heart must generate a much greater pressure to pump the blood to the body. On the left side the valves are called mitral and aortic valves. The mitral valve connects the receiving chamber from the lungs, the left atrium, with the pumping chamber, the left ventricle. The aortic valve controls the flow of blood out of the heart into the aorta, the largest artery of the body which then gives rise to all the other arteries.

THE CORONARY ARTERIES

The first branches of the aorta are arteries to the heart muscle itself. There are two main coronary arteries: the left main (LM) and right coronary arteries (RCA). The left main coronary artery divides into two main branches: the left anterior descending (LAD), which runs down the front of the heart, and the circumflex artery (CX) which runs behind the heart. Branches of the LAD are called diagonal arteries and branches of the circumflex are called obtuse marginal arteries (OM). The right main coronary artery travels on the right side of the heart and gives off the posterior descending artery (PD).

simply saying, heart’s function is to…

take the blood from vena-cava(both superior and inferior)pump it through the pulmonary artery to the lungsafter the lungs oxygenate the received blood, blood is sent to the heart through the pulmonary veinthe heart then pumps the oxygenated blood for the whole body through the aorta

Now if you want to understand every point in detail, here we go:

Deoxygenated blood is received by the heart from the body through superior and inferior vena cava. The superior vana-cava carries deoxygenated blood from the upper region and inferior vena-cava(which is larger than the superior one) from the lower region of the body.The blood from both the vena-cava is received by the right atrium. Right atrium also receives blood from coronary sinuses(vessels of the heart itself). This blood (deoxygenated) flows into the right ventrical. The opening between the right aurical and ventrical is guarded by a bicuspid valve called the mitral valve. Now blood from right ventricle is pumped into the lungs(for oxygenation) through the pulmonary artery.After the blood is oxygenated in the lungs, it is again received by the heart…in the left atrium through the pulmonary vein. Now the blood from left atrium flows into the left ventricle. The opening of the left atrium and ventricle is guarded by the tricuspid valve.The left ventricle is now containing the oxygenated blood which is pumped through the aorta and reaches all the organs through arteries.

This is how heart works…
