The heart located inside the ribcage and just to the right of the breastbone, True or False?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The heart is indeed located behind the rib cage, however, I would think that it is more to the left of the breastbone than to the right. To be more specific, the heart is situated in the thoracic cavity medial (middle) to the lungs. It is posterior (back/rear) to the sternum. I would have to say that the statement above is False.

I agree with Imackey. The heart is slightly located left of the breastbone and the right is mostly of the entire ribcage. So, yes, it's false.
