- 20. covers surfaces and lines cavities; usually in thin layers with tightly packed cells
Down
- 1. the vein that bring deoxygenated blood to the heart/right atrium from the lower part of the body.
- 2. the first-place where blood enters the heart leaflet shape on the outside, gets blood from the vena cavae and transports into the right ventricle.
- 3. refers to the movement of blood between the lungs and the heart

- 6. Is the phase when blood is sent out of the heart Blood is pump out of the ventricles to the lungs and body It is the ventricular contraction phase
- 9. is a muscular organ that pumps blood to the body.
- 10. the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart, to take it to the lungs.
- 13. blood enters here after entering through the right atrium, and is then pumped into the pulmonary artery to be taken to the lungs to get oxygen.
- 16. this is where oxygenated blood enters the heart and then goes into the left ventricle.
