Aorta
The largest arterial trunk that carries blood from the heart to be distributed by branch arteries through the body
a vessel that returns blood to the heart
a body structure that is temporarily closes a passage or orifice, or permits movement of fluid in only one direction.
An integrated group of cells with a common function, structure, or both
Artery
A valve in the heart that guards the opening between the left atrium and the left ventricle; prevents the blood in the ventricle from returning to the atrium. Alternative name is bicuspid valve.
A vein that is the largest vein in the human body and returns blood to the right atrium of the heart from bodily parts below the diaphragm.
The body structure that temporarily closes a passage or orifice, or permits movement of fluid in only one direction.
Any of the tubular, branching, muscular, and elastic-walled vessels that carry blood from the heart through the body.
The right side of the heart contains...
Oxygenated Blood
De-oxygenated Blood
Both Oxygenated and De-oxygenated Blood
Water
Which blood vessels has a thicker wall?
Arteries
Veins
Neither both have the same thickness
I'm not sure
What is the function of valves in the heart?
To keep the heart pumping
To create pressure
To prevent back flow of blood
To keep the blood warm
Your heart is an involuntary muscle that is always working.
True
False
Cardiovascular System
The passage of venous blood from the right atrium of the heart through the right ventricle and pulmonary arteries to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its return via the pulmonary veins to enter the left atrium and participate in systemic circulation.
The transport system of the body responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrients to the body and carrying away carbon dioxide and other wastes; composed of the heart, blood, vessels, and blood.
The branch of the circulatory system that supplies all body organs and then returns oxygen poor blood to the right atrium via the veins.
a vessel that returns blood to the heart
Systemic Circulation
A vein that is the largest vein in the human body and returns blood to the right atrium of the heart from bodily parts below the diaphragm.
A valve in the heart that guards the opening between the left atrium and the left ventricle; prevents the blood in the ventricle from returning to the atrium. Alternative name is bicuspid valve.
The branch of the circulatory system that supplies all body organs and then returns oxygen poor blood to the right atrium via the veins.
The passage of venous blood from the right atrium of the heart through the right ventricle and pulmonary arteries to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its return via the pulmonary veins to enter the left atrium and participate in systemic circulation.
Pulmonary Circulation
A valve that is situated at the opening of the right atrium of the heart into the right ventricle and that resembles the mitral valve in structure in structure but consists of 3 triangular membranous flaps.
a vessel that returns blood to the heart
The passage of venous blood from the right atrium of the heart through the right ventricle and pulmonary arteries to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its return via the pulmonary veins to enter the left atrium and participate in systemic circulation.
a body structure that is temporarily closes a passage or orifice, or permits movement of fluid in only one direction.
Vein
The largest arterial trunk that carries blood from the heart to be distributed by branch arteries through the body
The semilunar valve separating the aorta from the left ventricle that prevents blood from flowing back into the left ventricle.
The passage of venous blood from the right atrium of the heart through the right ventricle and pulmonary arteries to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its return via the pulmonary veins to enter the left atrium and participate in systemic circulation.
a vessel that returns blood to the heart
Which is the correct flow of blood?
R. atrium --> R. Ventricle --> pulmonary artery
R. atrium --> L. atrium --> aorta
L. ventricle --> pulmonary artery --> aorta
L. ventricle --> L. atrium --> aorta
