A Journey Through the Heart

Professor Dave provides an in-depth exploration of the heart and circulatory system. The video begins with an introduction to the heart's function, followed by a detailed overview of the circulatory system, including the pulmonary and systemic circuits. The viewer is taken on a simulated journey through the heart's chambers, experiencing the path of both oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood. The video concludes with insights into the heart's structure and function, enhancing understanding of the circulatory process.

What is the primary function of the heart as discussed in the introduction?
