Heart Attack Explained (Animation)
When the blood supply that oxygenates the heart muscle is significantly decreased or stopped entirely, a heart attack happens. This occurs as a result of plaque, which is a mass of cholesterol, fat, and other compounds, blocking the coronary arteries that provide blood to the heart muscle. This sluggish progression is referred to as atherosclerosis. A blood clot forms on plaque that ruptures in a cardiac artery. This blood clot may obstruct the artery that supplies the heart muscle with blood. #shorts #animation #anatomy #heart #heartattack
