Across
  1. 4. The phase of the heartbeat when the heart muscle contracts and pumps blood from the chambers into the arteries.
  2. 7. It is a pressure of 130 systolic or higher, or 80 diastolic or higher, that stays high over time.
  3. 8. It is a form of cancer of blood or bone marrow which affects leukocytes.
  4. 10. It is also known as the bicuspid valve and it is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
  5. 11. It is a heart condition which makes the heart beat more than a 100 times per minute.
  6. 12. Thick-walled, thicker and smaller lumen than the accompanying veins and lack of valves.
  7. 14. They are the blood vessels that deliver deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
  8. 17. Thin-walled, thicker than arteries, larger lumen than arteries and valves are present.
  9. 22. It carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs and it carries oxygenated blood to the left atrium and ventricle.
  10. 25. The lower right chamber in the heart which receives blood from the right atrium and it pumps it into the lungs.
  11. 27. Condition where the blood doesn´t have the necessary blood-clotting proteins which makes the blood clot.
  12. 29. It is one of the largest veins in the body, it collects deoxygenated blood from the upper half of the body.
  13. 30. They contain a protein called hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.
Down
  1. 1. It is one of the largest veins in the body, it collects deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body.
  2. 2. Disease where plaque builds up in the arteries.
  3. 3. Condition also known as high blood pressure where blood pressure is constantly elevated.
  4. 5. It carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the capillaries in tissues and from these capillaries it carries deoxygenated blood to the right atrium.
  5. 6. It is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg.
  6. 9. Tissue that separates the two ventricular chambers and the blood which comes through them.
  7. 13. They are the veins that transfer oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
  8. 15. It sends out electrical impulses which travel through the heart, making it contract.
  9. 16. They are also called leukocytes or leukocytes
  10. 18. It is the largest artery in the body.
  11. 19. It is the valve that separates the left ventricle and the aorta.
  12. 20. It is the valve that is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle.
  13. 21. The left upper chamber in the heart. Ir receives oxygenated blood, which it pumps into the left ventricle.
  14. 23. It is defined as readings lower than 90 mm Hg systolic or 60 mm Hg diastolic.
  15. 24. Smallest blood vessels in the body and in these the transfer of oxygen and nutrients between the bloodstream and tissues is done.
  16. 26. The phase of the heartbeat when the heart muscle relaxes and allows the chambers to fill with blood.
  17. 28. The right upper chamber in the heart. Ir receives deoxygenated blood and pumps it into the right ventricle.
