Your ribs are like a cage that protect your heart and lungs, and they connect to your spine like puzzle pieces. This connection helps you move and breathe by letting your chest get bigger and smaller, like when you blow up a balloon and then let the air out.

Articulation With Ribs

Ribs

Cage

The heart is a muscular organ responsible for pumping blood throughout the body via the circulatory system, supplying oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes. It functions through a series of electrical impulses that regulate its rhythmic contractions, ensuring efficient blood flow and maintaining homeostasis.

Heart

The lungs are vital respiratory organs responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the bloodstream and the environment, playing a crucial role in maintaining the body's metabolic processes. They consist of a complex system of airways and alveoli, which maximize surface area for efficient gas exchange and are protected by the rib cage and diaphragm for mechanical support and ventilation.
