Heart Anatomy and Function

The video tutorial explores the anatomy of a pig heart, starting with external orientation, identifying the base and apex, and the coronary artery. It then delves into the internal anatomy, highlighting the left and right ventricles, atria, and associated valves. The tutorial explains the major blood vessels, including the aorta and pulmonary artery, and concludes with a discussion on veins and coronary arteries.
