The heart is one of the most important organ in the human's body. It pumps blood continuously around our body through the blood vessel. The heart is  in centre position the chest and it is protected by the rib cage. The heart die a few seconds after the brain when a person is. The study of the human heart and its various disorders is known as cardiology. The heart is made up of four chambers, the left atrium, right atrium, left ventricle and right ventricle. There are four valves in the human heart, they ensure that blood only goes one way, either in or out. There are four valves in the human heart, they ensure that blood only goes one way, either in or out. Blood that leaves the heart is carried through arteries. The main artery leaving the left ventricle is the aorta while the main artery leaving the right ventricle is the pulmonary artery. You might have felt your own heart beating, this is known as the cardiac cycle. When your heart contracts it makes the chambers smaller and pushes blood into the blood vessels. After your heart relaxes again the chambers get bigger and are filled with blood coming back into the heart. Electricity going through your heart makes the muscle cells contract .You might have watched television shows or movies where a patient in a hospital is attached to an electrocardiogram (ECG). You might recognize it as the machine with a line moving across a screen that occasionally spikes (or remains flat when a patient is dying). This machine can measure the electricity going through a patient’s heart. A doctor can use the information to know when a patient is having heart rhythm problems or even a heart attack. Heart attacks cause scar tissue to form amongst normal heart tissue, this can lead to further heart problems or even heart failure.The heart has a muscle that is called the cardiac muscle.
