Heart-lung system,artwork. These chest organs are shown with the surrounding upper torso bones (including the rib-cage),and the arteries (red) and veins (blue) that circulate blood around the body. The heart (not clearly seen) is at centre. On either side are the lungs (light brown). Deoxygenated blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs,where it is reoxygenated and passed back to the heart. The oxygenated blood is then pumped around the body,into the arms,through the throat to the head,and downwards through the aorta to the lower body | |
