The heart
Everyone knows that the heart is a
vital organ, we can not live with out

which transports blood around the
body. Here is a diagram of the
most important organ in our body

The heart contains four chambers, two at the top
and two at the bottom. The upper two are named
atria or auricles. Now moving on, your heart is the
same size as your fist and as you grow your heart
grows !!!
Your heart is the
most important organ
in your whole body !!
