| | Heart and Circulatory System |
 | | Heart and circulatory problems are grouped into two categories: congenital, which means the problems were present at birth, and acquired, which means that the problems developed some time when a person was a kid or teen. | | | Heart attacks are very rare in children and teens. | | | The heart has four chambers that are enclosed by thick, muscular walls. |

| | If you want to find out what your heart rate is, use a watch with a second hand and count how many beats you feel in 1 minute. | | | Running down the middle of the heart is a thick wall of muscle called the septum (say: sep-tum). | | | You probably guessed that the blood just doesn't slosh around your body, once it leaves the heart. |
