Text A. The Heart and the Vascular System
The heart is an inner hollow muscular organ placed within the chest and
included in the pericardium. The base of the heart is against the third rib.
Its apex is against the interspace between the fifth and sixth costal cartilages.
The weight of the heart is about 300 grams (g) in the male and about 220 g
in the female.
The heart consists of two separate chambers divided by the septum. Each
of the chambers has two connected parts: the atrium and the ventricle. The
atrioventricular valves separate the atria from the ventricles.
The right atrium is larger than the left one, but the walls of the left
atrium are thicker than those of the right one. The right ventricle is trian-
gular (tpeyrojbhbé) in form and has thick walls. The right ventricle is in
the anterior part of the heart. The left ventricle is longer and more conical
than the right one. The walls of the left ventricle are three times as thick as
the walls of the right one. The valves are located at the entrance and exit
(BÚIXOI) of each ventricle.
The muscular structure of the heart consists of two parts the muscular
layers of the atria and the muscular layers of the ventricles.
The vascular system consists of three groups of vessels - arteries, veins
and capillaries.
The vessels carrying blood to and from the tissues of the body compose
the general circulation. They are called the systemic vessels.
The pulmonary circulation is formed by the vessels carrying blood to
and from the lungs.
The portal system is formed by the veins passing to the liver.
Most of the arteries are composed of three coats. The arteries dilate and
contract simultaneously with the action of the heart.
Trafalgar Square (/ˌtrəˈfælɡər/ trə-fal-gər) is a public space and tourist attraction in central London, built around the area formerly known as Charing Cross. It is situated in the City of Westminster. At its centre is Nelson's Column, which is guarded by four lion statues at its base. There are a number of commemorative statues and sculptures in the square, while one plinth, left empty since it was built in 1840, The Fourth Plinth, has been host to contemporary art since 1999. The square is also used for political demonstrations and community gatherings, such as the celebration of New Year's Eve.
The name commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar, a British naval victory of the Napoleonic Wars over France and Spain which took place on 21 October 1805 off the coast of Cape Trafalgar in Los Canos de Meca, a town in the municipality of Vejer de la Frontera (in the municipality of Barbate since 1940), Cadiz, Spain. The original name was to have been "King William the Fourth's Square", but George Ledwell Taylor suggested the name "Trafalgar Square".[1]
In the 1820s George IV engaged the architect John Nash to redevelop the area. Nash cleared the square as part of his Charing Cross Improvement Scheme. The present architecture of the square is due to Sir Charles Barry and was completed in 1845.
Trafalgar Square is owned by the Queen in Right of the Crown and managed by the Greater London Authority, while Westminster City Council owns the roads around the square, including the pedestrianised area of the North Terrace.[2] It forms part of the Northbank business improvement district
