You might be looking for the atria and ventricles, but these are just the chambers inside the heart. I have never heard of "heart pumps" before.

How does a heart pump blood?
Your heart pumps blood. It's part of the circulatory system.
What 2 circuits does the heart pumps blood through what?
Pulmonary and systemic
What is tricky about the left and right sides of the heart?
Well the heart is based on 4 chambers you have 2 upper ventricals and 2 lower ventricles the ventricles each have 2 little doors that open and close. the top right ventricle will suck in the blood and the bottom 2 will transfer it to the left top ventricle which than pushes the blood out into the blood stream again in average healty heart will beat 70-75 beats per minute. Children have a higher rate in the 80's and 90's, depending on their age. The younger they are the faster the heart rate.
How does the heart help you?
it pumps out blood to the rest of your body which your body needs to live. if your heart stopped, you would die! And you take in oxygen which also helps you
Vessels carrying blood to the heart?
There are 2 or 3 methods for blood to return to the heart. The first method is by pressure. Enough pressure is generated in the heart to push the blood through the arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins, and back into the heart. The right side of the heart only pumps blood into the lungs and back to the heart and requires less pressure than the left side that pumps to the rest of the body, although the volume must be identical for the two halves. The second method is a pumping method by muscle contraction. This is especially true of the calf muscles in the leg pumping the blood back to the heart. A third method would be gravity for anything above the heart, including the head, or any limb that was elevated. Elevation can be used to decrease pressure and help reduce swelling.

What are the 2 numbers that make up blood pressure called?
The upper number is called the systolic, and is the pressure of how hard your heart is pumping. The lower number is the diastolic, and is how much the pressure is when your heart is relaxing between pumps.
What are 2 facts about the heart?
It pumps blood throughout your body. It is the strongest muscle in your body.
Do the heart functions as four separate pumps?
You could say that, but you could say it functions as two pumps or one. As four pumps the (1)left and (2)right atrium pump blood into the left and right ventricles. Then the Left and Right ventricles pump blood into the (3)lungs and (4)body respectively. Looking at the heart as two pumps, the atriums (L and R) pump into the ventricles. As one pump, the heart circulates the blood in the body.
How is the heart is thought of as two pumps rather than a single pump?
because it supplies 2 ciruclations
Why does sheep heart have 2 halves?
The heart has two halves because one half pumps oxygen and the other carbon dioxide. Et voilà!
What statement most accurately describes the human heart?
4) it has 2 ventricle and 2 atria and it pumps blood directly into arteries
What is the name of the upper chambers of the heart?
The heart has two upper chambers. One of which being the right atrium which pumps deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle, and the other being the left atrium which pumps oxygenated blood to the left ventricle.
How many bones are in the human heart?
1 In fact, we have 2 hearts, one beside another. Its like a dual pump in other words, one pumps deoxygenated blood, while one pumps oxygenated blood.
Why is the heart called a dual action pump?
Its a Dual Pump because it contains 2 pumps, the atria and the ventricles. Atria work as a weak primer pump that pump to the ventricles and ventricles are the major pump that distributes it.
