The heart by boardworks
... How does the heart pump blood? All the parts of the heart on either side, work together in a repeated sequence. The two atria contract and relax; then the two ventricles contract and relax. This is how blood moves through the heart and is pumped to the lungs and the body. One complete sequence of c ...
