Across
  1. 3. Supply oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle itself
  2. 7. Prevents backflow into the left atrium during ventricular contraction
  3. 9. Major artery distributing oxygen-rich blood to systemic circulation
  4. 10. Divides the left and right sides of the heart
  5. 12. Prevents backflow of blood into the right atrium
  6. 13. Pumps blood to the lungs via the pulmonary artery
  7. 15. Receives deoxygenated blood from the body via the superior and inferior vena cava
  8. 17. Tiny vessels enabling gas exchange between blood and tissues
  9. 19. Receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
Down
  1. 1. Moves blood between heart and lungs for oxygenation
  2. 2. Delivers oxygenated blood from heart to body tissues
  3. 4. Carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs
  4. 5. Muscle responsible for inspiration and expiration
  5. 6. Airway connecting the larynx to the bronchi
  6. 8. Pumps oxygenated blood through the aorta to the body
  7. 11. Protective sac surrounding the heart
  8. 14. Main airways that direct air into each lung
  9. 16. Carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium
  10. 18. Microscopic sacs where oxygen diffuses into capillaries
  11. 19. Site of gas exchange — oxygen enters blood, carbon dioxide is expelled
