The Heart

The other day in my Anatomy/Physiology class we learned the primary functions of the Cardivascular System (CV). There are four functions of the Cardiovascular System. The first function is to transport Oxygen and nutrients to the cells. The second function is to transport Cardon Dioxide and waste away from cells. The third function is to regulate body temperature, pH levels, and fluid balance. Lastly, the Cardiovascular System protects the body from blood loss and infection. The heart has four chambers which includes two atrias and two ventricles. The heart also has two pumps which are located on the right and left side of the heart. I really enjoyed learning about the heart, although there were times where I was a bit confused, but after studying I thought it was the most amazing organ in my body.
