Your heart grows only through your teenage years, just like your bones, genitals and female breasts. The best way to understand the size of your heart is to compare it to the size of your clenched fist (punching fist). An infant's fist is much smaller than an adult's fist. The size of the heart is roughly equal to the size of the fist.
The heart cannot continue growing through adulthood to old age because the cardiac muscle would not be able to fit in the chest or pump effectively if it kept growing. When the heart muscle is damaged and becomes flabby or unable to pump, the person can go into heart failure or can have a heart attack.

The heart's typical response to ischemia is?
The natural biologic response to repeated myocardial ischemia (insufficient oxygen levels in heart muscle) is angiogenesis, the growth of new collateral blood vessels. http://www.cardiumthx.com/science-technology-overview.html
What are the immediate effects of exercise on heart rate of human?
the heart will implode No it wont. the realy long term effects on your heart are as follows * cardiac hypertrophy (growth in the myocardium muscle that the heart is made from) * increased stroke volume (more blood pumped per beat) * lower resting blood preasure * increased cardiac output (blood pumped per min) * lower heart ratewhile resting and active * quicker recovery rate (heart returns to normal speed after exercise faster) * incrase in blood flow It also dramatically lowers the chance of getting coronary heart disease. Once your heart rate drops bellow 60bpm it is said to be more efficient, this state is called brandycardia.

Why does a fetus heart bea slow?
A fetus's heart beats slowly compared to an adult's heart rate due to its developmental stage and the lower metabolic demands of the fetal environment. In the womb, the fetus relies on the placenta for oxygen and nutrients, which reduces the need for a higher heart rate. Additionally, the fetal heart's structure and function are adapted to support growth and development rather than the demands of independent living. As the fetus matures, its heart rate typically increases in response to growth and activity levels.

Does the heart grow slow in infancy?
Yes, the heart grows relatively slowly during infancy compared to other organs. While the heart is fully formed at birth, it continues to grow in size and increase in capacity as the infant develops. This gradual growth is essential for accommodating the increasing demands of the body as the infant transitions to childhood. Overall, the heart's development is part of a complex process that supports the infant's overall growth and health.

What is HS medium?
HS medium refers to Heart infusion-Serum (HS) broth or agar, a type of nutrient medium commonly used in microbiology to grow and cultivate a variety of bacteria. It contains heart infusion broth supplemented with animal serum, providing essential nutrients and growth factors for bacterial growth. HS medium is particularly useful for fastidious bacteria that require specific nutrients for growth.
What is a baby chick's heart rate?
A baby chick's heart rate typically ranges from 300 to 400 beats per minute. This high heart rate is necessary to support their rapid growth and high metabolic needs. The heart rate can vary based on factors such as age, activity level, and environmental conditions.
