Heart - Blood flow
Across
- 7. Large vein that drains deoxygenated blood from head, neck, and upper extremity regions into the right atrium.
- 8. Artery that carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the rest of the body.
- 9. Chamber responsible for receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary veins.
- 12. Valve within heart located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk (artery).
- 13. Chamber of the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the left atrium. Responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to the body through the aorta.
- 14. Chamber of heart responsible for pumping deoxygenated blood to the lungs. It receives deoxygenated blood from the right atrium.
Down
- 1. Valve of the heart located between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
- 2. Vein that carries blood from the lungs to the left atrium. This is the only vein in the body that contains oxygenated blood.
- 3. Chamber of heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cava. This chamber pumps blood to the right ventricle
- 4. Valve within the heart located between the left ventricle and the aorta.
- 5. Large vein that drains deoxygenated blood from the thoracic, abdominal, pelvic, and lower extremity regions into the right atrium.
- 6. Wall separating the right atrium from the left atrium. This is important so that deoxygenated blood does not mix with oxygenated blood.
- 10. Artery that carries blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. This is the only artery in the body that contains deoxygenated blood.
- 11. Valve of the heart located between the right atrium and the right ventricle.
