The heart is a muscular
structure that contracts in a
rhythmic pattern to pump blood. The human heart is a two-
sided, 4 chambered structure
with muscular walls.
The heart beats or contracts 70
times per minute.
The human heart will undergo
over 3 billion contraction cycles
during a normal lifetime
