Across
- 8. Space containing fat, thymus, Front part of mediastinum (between lungs)
- 11. Pumps blood through body, Center of chest, slightly left
- 13. Protects heart and lungs; rib attachment, Front center of chest
- 16. Passage for bronchi, blood vessels, nerves, Medial side of each lung
- 18. Gas exchange, Right side of chest, above diaphragm
- 19. Moves food to stomach, Behind trachea
- 20. Rests on diaphragm; helps lung expand during breathing, Bottom of each lung
Down
- 1. Carries deoxygenated blood to left lung, From pulmonary trunk to left lung
- 2. Covers lungs; reduces friction, Directly on lung surface
- 3. Protect and reduce friction for the heart, Surrounding the heart
- 4. Gas exchange, Left side of chest, slightly smaller due to heart
- 5. Carries oxygenated blood to heart, From left lung to left atrium
- 6. Carries air into the left lung, Branches from trachea into left lung
- 7. Main muscle for breathing, Below lungs, separates chest and abdomen
- 9. Lines chest wall, Inner surface of thoracic cavity
- 10. Protects organs; aids breathing, Chest wall
- 12. Carries deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs, Exits right ventricle, splits into pulmonary arteries
- 14. Conducts air to and from lungs, Midline of neck into upper chest
- 15. Immune system development, Behind sternum, in anterior mediastinum
- 17. Fluid space to reduce friction during breathing, Between visceral and parietal pleura
