Given that the heart beats once per second. We know that one year has 365 days, 1 day has 24 hours, 1hour has 60 minute and 1 minute has 60 seconds. Then in one year, the number of times heart beats is

1365246060=31,536,000\begin{aligned}1\cdot 365\cdot 24\cdot 60\cdot 60&=31, 536, 000\end{aligned}
