Résumé
Herein, we consider the heart as an organ whose task is to supply blood flow to the tissues. A brief section on the form and function of the heart sets the stage for more detailed sections on cardiac physiology where we emphasize how cardiac output varies among species and with activity, and how heart rate and cardiac stroke volume are controlled. In separate sections, we consider the coronary circulation and its control.
