How Does Blood Flow Through The Heart

The document describes how blood flows through the heart. Oxygen-rich blood returns to the heart from the body and lungs through veins, and is then pumped back out to the body and lungs through arteries. The activity suggests finding one's pulse before and after exercise to feel the difference in heart rate.
