Heart anatomy is the foundation of everything you’ll learn in this unit. Before you can understand how the heart pumps blood, generates electrical signals, or responds to the body’s changing demands, you need to know what’s inside it — the chambers, valves, vessels, and layers of the heart wall. Use the practice activities below to build that foundation.
