The heart is the central organ in the human body. Like an engine, it pumps blood through our bodies, supplying all organs and cells with oxygen and nutrients. The heart is a hollow muscle and is made up of two heart halves, separated by a septum, which are each made up of an atrium and a ventricle. In this film, we take a closer look at the processes in the heart and find out how blood is pumped through the large and small bloodstreams throughout the whole body. At the end of the film you will find a glossary with a summary of the contents.
