The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist, located just behind and slightly left of the breastbone. The heart pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system

The human heart is one of the most important organs responsible for sustaining life. It is a muscular organ with four chambers. The size of the heart is the size of about a clenched fist.

The human heart functions throughout a person’s lifespan and is one of the most robust and hardest working muscles in the human body.

Besides humans, most of the other animals also possess a heart that pumps blood throughout their body. Even invertebrates such as grasshoppers possess a heart like pumping organ, though they do not function the same way a human heart does.

Position of Heart in Human Body

The human heart is located between the lungs in the thoracic cavity, slightly towards the left of the sternum (breastbone). It is derived from the embryonic mesodermal germ layer.

  2. The right atrium receives blood from the veins and pumps it to the right ventricle.
  3. The right ventricle pumps the blood received from the right atrium to the lungs.
  4. The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle.
  5. The left ventricle pumps the oxygenated blood throughout the body.
