  1. 3. having the hemoglobin in the reduced state
  2. 6. artery an artery that conveys venous blood from the heart to the lungs
  3. 8. a chamber of the heart which receives blood from a corresponding atrium and from which blood is forced into the arteries
  4. 9. a valve of three flaps that prevents reflux of blood from the right ventricle to the right atrium
  5. 10. when body temperature returns to normal from being too cold, what happens to the act of shivering?
  6. 13. any of the large veins by which in air-breathing vertebrates the blood is returned to the right atrium of the heart
  7. 15. a minute thin-walled vessel of the body
  8. 18. the chamber or either of the chambers of the heart that receives blood from the veins and forces it into the ventricle or ventricles
  9. 19. SINUS NODE
  10. 20. any of the tubular branching vessels that carry blood from the capillaries toward the heart
Down
  1. 1. constitute the basic respiratory organs of an air-breathing vertebrate
  2. 2. to impregnate, combine, or supply (something, such as blood) with oxygen
  3. 4. abnormally high blood pressure and especially arterial blood pressure
  4. 5. when intensity increases, what happens to respiratory rate?
  5. 7. a valve of two flaps that prevents fluid to flow back from the left ventricle to the left atrium
  6. 11. a bodily structure that closes temporarily a passage or orifice or permits movement of fluid in one direction only
  7. 12. any of the tubular branching muscular- and elastic-walled vessels that carry blood from the heart through the body
  8. 14. a severe inflammatory or ulcerated condition of the mouth or throat
  9. 16. the great arterial trunk that carries blood from the heart to be distributed by branch arteries through the body
  10. 17. dioxide formed especially in animal respiration
