Best Answer

When your heart contracts their is a twisting and lifting motion. It is almost like ringing out a dish rag. The apex, or the tip, of the heart raises up as the heart twists as it pushes out the blood from the ventricles.

There is also motion that occurs due to other reasons besides the contraction of the heart. The base of the heart is attached to numerous vessels and other tissue, so it is more or less anchored. However, the apex of the heart is not anchored to anything and can shift around based our our body position and breathing. The motion of the heart due to position and diaphragm motion can be around 3 cm.

Yes. Even though the brain is fairly securely fixed in the skull, it does move about when, for instance, you hit your head really hard against a wall.

Yes, it's normal for your heart to move with every heart beat. The movement of the heart is what generates the force to move blood throughout the body.
