The valves of the heart prevent backflow into the arteries. As a result, the heart can efficiently pump the correct amount of blood to the tissues of the body efficiently and rhythmically. -Cheers The valves of the heart prevent backflow into the arteries.

Does blood keeps the heart pumping?
not entirely, if the blood flow stops,so does the heart, but the heart is mainly used to keep the blood flowing so it can get to different parts of the body.

Significant difference between male and female resting heart rate and activing heart rate?
There isn't an extremely big difference between male and female resting heart rate but you can certainly notice some difference. Males have a larger body mass causing their body to work harder to pump oxygen and nutrients throughout the body and pump CO2/waste out of the body. Where as females have a slightly smaller body mass, meaning their body doesn't have to work as hard as the males. The result of this is that Females do have a lower heart rate than males but not by a massive amount.

How much nourishment does the human heart get from the blood?
Im not quite sure what you mean. The body has 3 separate circulations; systemic, pulmonary and coronary. The coronary circulation sends oxygenized blood to the heart muscles so it can receive the necessary nutrients. There is not a set amount of nutrients the heart pulls from the blood, it is based on need. The heart does get all of its nutrients from the blood.

Can anaemia cause heart flutters?
Yes anaemia can cause heart flutters (palpitations). The cause is usually due to the heart trying to compensate for low oxygen levels in the body. Anaemia is an abnormally low amount of haemoglobin in the blood, which is the part of blood which carries oxygen. Therefore, low haemoglobin levels lead to low oxygen levels. In response, the heart will often try to increase the amount of blood pumped around the body, to meet the body's demand for oxygen by beating faster. This can cause a high heart rate which can lead to palpitations or heart flutters.
If you have arteriosclerosis what happens to the size of your heart?
