The heart and blood, sentence 15

A giraffe's heart weighs about 11 kg and pumps at about twice the pressure of ours to push blood some 2 metres up its neck to the brain, and special blood vessels in its neck stop it fainting when it lifts its head after drinking.

Who acts: heart, special blood vessels, blood · What happens: weigh, pump, push, stop, faint, lift · To what, where: 11 kg, pressure, blood, head, ours
