About it
The heart is a muscle that pumps blood around the body. It has four chambers: the two atria on top fill with blood, then the two ventricles below squeeze it out, the right side to the lungs and the left side to the rest of the body.
This heart beats by itself, the atria first and then the ventricles. Tap it and it races, as it does when you run, then calms down again. A resting adult heart beats about 60 to 100 times a minute, which is about 100,000 beats a day. Style switches between an anatomical heart and a love heart; Color changes its tint.
