Title:
How the heart pumps blood: Systole (pumping) and diastole (resting)
Alternate Title:
Alternative Text:
Illustration of the interior of the heart shows how blood is squeezed out during the pumping action, called systole. Blood comes back in during the resting phase, called diastole.
Caption:
Pumping action of the heart. During systole (left), your heart muscle squeezes blood out of your heart's pumping chambers (ventricles). Blood on the right side of your heart goes to your lungs, and blood on the left side is pumped into the large blood vessel (aorta) that feeds your arteries. During diastole (right), your heart muscle relaxes and expands to allow blood to flow into the pumping chambers from your heart's holding chambers (atria).
