Scientists know why the heart is

According to research results published in Scientific Reports, the researchers explained why humans and many other organisms appear heart rhythms. Turns out, heart rate is done through the hydraulic system.

The heart is beating because it is hydraulic.

The structure of the heart and the mechanism that helps the heart to carry blood throughout the body have been studied for a long time, but the reason why having a heartbeat is still a mystery.

Scientists at the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology conducted magnetic resonance imaging to monitor changes in the size of the heart chamber while the heart beats and finds that the heart beats through hydraulics . Hydraulic itself contributes to blood flow into the heart chamber.

"This seems obvious but so far, the role of hydraulics in cardiac activity has not yet been taken into account , " said Martin Ugander, the lead author of the work.

The authors hope that their findings will help find new ways to treat heart diseases.
