Heart Definition

The heart is a muscular organ that pumps blood throughout the body. It is located in the middle cavity of the chest, between the lungs. In most people, the heart is located on the left side of the chest, beneath the breastbone.

Function of the Heart

The heart pumps blood through our immense and complicated circulatory systems at high pressure. It is a truly impressive feat of engineering, as it must circulate about five liters of blood through a full 1,000 miles worth of blood vessels each minute!

The pumping action of the heart allows the movement of many substances between organs in the body, including nutrients, waste products, and hormones and other chemical messengers. However, arguably the most important substance it circulates is oxygen.

Oxygen is required for animal cells to perform cellular respiration. Without oxygen, cells cannot break down food to produce ATP, the cellular currency of energy. Soon, none of their energy-dependent processes can function. Without its energy-dependent processes, a cell dies.

Heart Structure

The heart’s unique design allows it to accomplish the incredible task of circulating blood through the human body. Here we will review its essential components, and how and why blood passes through them.
