- 9. part of the conducting airways that are not involved in gas exchange
- 10. where the coronary arteries originate
- 11. cardiac valves open and close based on this
- 12. reduces the surface tension in the alveoli
- 13. this structure secretes a small amount of fluid to reduce friction
- 14. main muscle involved in breathing
- 16. these stimulate other cardiac muscle cells (2 words, no space between words)
- 17. a hormone that stimulates the bone marrow to produce RBC
- 19. the structure in the kidney that allows filtration of fluid and small molecules
- 20. one of the structures in the upper respiratory system
- 21. the urine forming organ
- 24. considered the functional unit of the kidney
- 25. these structures contain valves to aid in the return of blood to the heart
