Cardiovascular System
Across
- 3. carries oxygen-poor blood from the lower body areas to the right side of the heart
- 5. valve activity that fills and relaces the ventricles and the atria
- 7. a flap thats in between left ventricle and left atrium to ensure correct blood flow
- 8. lowest blood pressure
- 10. an organ that pumps blood throughout the body
- 16. makes sure blood flows from the heart to the lungs
- 17. sound you hear first due to closing of the atrioventricular valves
- 18. makes sure that oxygen-rich blood doesn't flow back into the left ventricle
- 19. close and open to allow blood flow in one direction through the heart
- 20. blood goes through rest of body and heart
- 24. circulates from the left atrium and to the body
Down
- 1. makes sure blood flows from lungs to heart
- 2. atrium the atrium that receives blood from the lungs
- 4. sends the signal through this node the from SA node to the lower heart chambers which contracts them
- 6. atrium the atrium that receives blood from the rest of the body
- 9. a sac that is full of fluid that provides protection for the heart
- 11. circulation blood goes through lungs and heart only
- 12. sends electrical signals that contracts the upper heart chambers
- 13. sound you hear after dub due to closing of the pulmonary valves and aortic valves
- 14. largest vein in the body
- 15. valve activity that empties and contracts the ventricles and the atria
- 20. carries oxygen-poor blood from the upper body areas to the right side of the heart
- 21. circulates from the systemic circulation into the right atrium
- 22. manages oxygen-poor blood to reach the lungs
- 23. right av valve
