Solution

Man's Heart and a Woman's Heart:
The heart is a muscular organ in the chest that pumps blood around the body.
It is mostly made up of cardiac muscle tissue and uses regular, rhythmic contractions to pump blood through blood arteries.
Man's Heart Woman's Heart
The human heart is a four-chambered muscular organ with two-thirds of its mass to the left of midline, formed and sized roughly like a man's closed fist. The size of the heart, which is normally smaller in females than males, accounts for the majority of the variance.
Men's hearts are larger and pump out more blood with each beat than women's hearts. Women's hearts are smaller and beat faster than men's.

A pericardial sac surrounds the heart and is lined by the parietal layers of a serous membrane. Heart disease strikes women 10 years later than it does males. Premenopausal women do better than males when it comes to cardiovascular illness. They have a better prognosis than men when it comes to disorders like hypertension, aortic stenosis, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
