The heart is a muscular organ that continuously pumps oxygen-rich blood to the brain
and limbs and delivers oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs. The heart is a muscular pump that
typically beats between 60 and 100 times each minute. When the heart beats, blood is pumped
throughout the body, delivering oxygen-rich blood to every tissue and organ. The right atrium
receives blood from the body, pumps it into the right ventricle, and then forces it into the
pulmonary arteries. Once the blood has returned to the heart from the lungs with its oxygen load,
it will flow through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium, the left ventricle, and finally the
aorta, delivering oxygenated blood to the tissues throughout the body. This continues to be a
never-ending cycle.
