Question
Chapter 44.3, Problem 1SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
Role of each of the four chambers of a mammalian heart in blood circulation.
Introduction:
The heart is an important organ of the body as it controls the circulatory system. Mammals and other animals have a four-chambered heart that leads to double circulation. The heart pumps blood toward the lungs and other parts of the body simultaneously.
