Across
  1. 3. this valve is between left atrium and
  2. 5. this valve is between right atrium and ventricle
  3. 8. muscles and tendons that hold the valves in place
  4. 10. internally separates oxygenated and deoxygenated blood/separates left and right halves of heart
  5. 14. tip of heart, points toward left hip
  6. 15. receives deoxygenated blood from right atrium
  7. 18. thick, twisting bundles of cardiac muscle that provide contractions
  8. 20. these blood vessels provide oxygen to heart itself
  9. 22. most superficial layer, made of fat and connective tissue that provide the most protection to the heart and helps cardiac cells properly develop
  10. 24. the pericardium that produces lubricating fluid within the pericardial cavity to reduce friction between the heart and surrounding tissues
  11. 25. returns blood to heart from lower body
  12. 26. returns blood to heart from upper body
Down
  1. 1. receives oxygenated blood from body tissues
  2. 2. receives deoxygenated blood from body tissues
  3. 4. the pericardium that anchors the heart in place
  4. 6. receives oxygenated blood from left atrium
  5. 7. this side of your heart deals with oxygenated blood
  6. 9. between each chamber, allows for one way flow of blood through the heart
  7. 11. where blood is flowing through the heart
  8. 12. carries oxygenated blood to body tissues
  9. 13. this side of your deals with deoxygenated blood
  10. 16. deepest, thin layer that lines chambers of the heart
  11. 17. carries deoxygenated blood from body to lungs
  12. 19. this valve controls blood into pulmonary trunk
  13. 21. carries oxygenated blood to heart from lungs
  14. 23. this valve controls blood flow into aorta
