The document discusses the structure and function of the heart. It describes that the heart has four chambers - right atrium, left atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle. The myocardium is the heart's muscular wall that contracts and relaxes to pump blood through the body. The heart pumps about 7 liters of blood per minute.

- 7. You will realize this month is June and it is half of 2018 Ohhh gosssh Nakaka excite!!!!!!

- 9. Myocardium -is the heart’s muscular wall -it contracts and relaxes causing the heart beat. Contracts 60-80 times per minute -The amount of blood that is pumped is about 130 mL of blood -every beat makes 7 liters per minute
- 10. The heart’s interior shows the left side and the right side that are separated by a thick muscular wall. This wall is called septum.
- 11. The heart has four chambers namely: Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle
- 12. The atria (plural of atrium) are smaller wall with thinner walls The ventricles are bigger with thicker walls The atria holds the blood before it goes down to the ventricle
- 13. The right ventricle pumps to the lungs The left ventricle pumps the blood to all the parts of the body AORTA LUNGS
- 14. The valves that are found between the atria and ventricles with the blood vessels attached to them prevent blood from flowing backwards Tricuspid Valve Bicuspid Valve Aorticsemilunar valve Pulmonary semilunar valve
- 15. RECALL
- 16. Make a flow chart on how the blood flow inside the heart
