2.
Facts about the Human Heart <ul><li>Is a muscle </li></ul><ul><li>Moves 2,000 gallons of blood each day </li></ul><ul><li>Beats between 60 to 100 times per minute </li></ul>

3.
Four Chambers of the heart Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle

4.
Arteries and Veins Superior Vena Cava Pulmonary Veins Inferior Vena Cava Aorta Left Pulmonary Artery Pulmonary Veins

5.
Right Atrium <ul><li>Receives de-oxygenated blood from the superior vena cava and pumps it into the right ventricle. </li></ul>(Heart) Right Atrium Right Ventricle

6.
Right Ventricle <ul><li>Receives de-oxygenated blood from the right atrium and pumps it into the pulmonary artery. </li></ul>Right Ventricle Pulmonary artery

7.
Pulmonary Artery <ul><li>Receives de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle and moves it into the lungs to pick up oxygen. </li></ul><ul><li>Fact: arteries carry blood away from the heart. </li></ul>Pulmonary Artery

8.
Left Atrium <ul><li>Is larger than the right atrium, it receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins, and pumps it into the left ventricle . </li></ul>Left Atrium Left Ventricle

9.
Left Ventricle <ul><li>Is larger then the right ventricle, it receives oxygenated blood from the left atrium, and pumps it into the aorta . </li></ul>Left Ventricle Aorta

10.
Aorta <ul><li>Is the largest artery in the human body, it receives oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart and moves it to all parts of the body. </li></ul>Aorta

11.
Pulmonary Veins <ul><li>Carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart. </li></ul><ul><li>Fact: They are the only veins that carry oxygenated blood . </li></ul>Pulmonary Veins Pulmonary Veins

12.
Inferior Vena Cava <ul><li>Is the large vein that carries de-oxygenated blood from the lower half of the body into the heart. </li></ul>Inferior Vena Cava

13.
Superior Vena Cava <ul><li>Is a large but short vein that carries de-oxygenated blood from the upper half of the body to the hearts right atrium . </li></ul>Superior Vena Cava

14.
Summary <ul><li>The human heart has four chambers </li></ul><ul><li>Right Atrium </li></ul><ul><li>Left Atrium </li></ul><ul><li>Right Ventricle </li></ul><ul><li>Left Ventricle </li></ul>

15.
Summary Continued <ul><li>The arteries of the heart carry blood away from the heart. </li></ul><ul><li>The veins of the heart carry blood to the heart. </li></ul><ul><li>The largest artery in the body is the aorta. </li></ul>
