Abstract
The heart is an integral part of the cardiovascular system in the body of vertebrates. It provides the pressure needed for the blood to be pumped to different parts of the body. The heart maintains the flow of blood throughout the whole cardiovascular system. This in turn allows all the separate parts of the body to be energized with oxygenated blood, maintaining a stable internal environment.
The heart plays essentially the same role in all the animals which posses it, however its structural anatomy varies somewhat from species to species. amphibian hearts have three chambers which include the left atrium, right atrium and a single ventricle.
