Cardiovascular Test Practice

The two circuits of the cardiovascular system consist of the following

• Pulmonary and systemic
• Cardiac and coronary
• Arteries and veins
• Atria and Ventricles

• Right atrium
• Left ventricle
• Right ventricle

The membranous sac that surrounds the heart is the

• Peritoneum
• Cardiac Mesentery
• Pericardium
• Alveoli

The thickest layer of the heart is the

• Endocardium
• Myocardium
