The tubular heart or primitive heart tube is the earliest stage of heart development. [1] The heart is the first organ to develop during human embryonic development. [2]From the inflow to the outflow, the tubular heart consists of sinus venosus, primitive atrium, the primitive ventricle, the bulbus cordis, and truncus arteriosus. [3]
Heart development, also known as cardiogenesis, refers to the prenatal development of the heart. This begins with the formation of two endocardial tubes which merge to form the tubular heart, also called the primitive heart tube. The heart is the first functional organ in vertebrate embryos.
The endocardial heart tubes derive from the visceral mesoderm and initially are formed by a confluence of angioblastic blood vessels on either side of the embryonic midline. The endocardial tubes have an intimate proximity to the foregut or pharyngeal endoderm .

The heart is a muscular organ situated in the mediastinum.It consists of four chambers, four valves, two main arteries (the coronary arteries), and the conduction system. The left and right sides of the heart have different functions: the right side receives de-oxygenated blood through the superior and inferior venae cavae and pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery, and the left ...

OK diagram and I like the cross-section approach. However, in the two general hear articles, there are a lot of similar diagrams and such (one has this image dropped down into references and is just way overloaded with same stuff). For the more particular articles on heart string and ventricle, the diagram is somewhat helpful as they lack a ...
