The heart is one of the most important parts of the body, the reason is that it pumps the blood right through the body so that each part of the body works.
Here is the different part of the heart and what they do:
Heart - A hollow, muscular organ that pumps blood throughout the body.
Atrium - Upper chamber of the heart that receives blood.
Ventricle - Bottom part of the heart, V-shaped pumps blood away from the heart.
Aorta - Takes blood away from the heart to the rest of the body, largest artery.
Vena cava - A large vein carrying deoxygenated blood into the heart from the body.
Circulatory system - System that transports gases and nutrients around the body, using the heart, vessels and blood.
