Learning time
Kids learn by watching short, engaging video lessons.
The human heart is made of very strong muscle. This organ consists of four chambers which pump blood around the body by squeezing and relaxing in a regular rhythm. The heart beats on average 70 times per minute. This might be more or less depending on a person's age, fitness level, and other health factors. The heart has a special area which acts as a pacemaker. This area creates an electrical impulse like a small electric shock which makes the chambers of the heart contract at the correct time. This ensures the blood is pumped in the right direction and at a speed that is suitable for the body's needs.
