A Child's Heart
The heart is the hardest working muscle in the human body. Located almost in the
center of the chest, the heart of a child is about the size of his fist.
A child's heart works just as hard as an adult's heart. In fact, a baby's heart may beat up to
190 times a minute, while an adult's heart usually beats between 60 and 100 times a minute. |
