Cardiovascular System_Mariam.Maiga
Across
- 3. Where Oxygen rich blood from the lungs enters through the pulmonary vein
- 4. Where deoxygenated blood enters and then gets pumped into the pulmonary veins
- 6. Branches into the right and left pulmonary arteries
- 7. Is located in the upper right thigh and pelvic region of the human body
- 11. Any vein that drains the lateral and posterior parts of the leg
- 12. Closes when pressure drops inside the heart
- 14. Responsible for pumping oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs
- 15. Drain both the anterior and posterior compartment of the arm
- 18. Could be called IVS for short or Ventricular Septum
- 20. Prevents the blood from flowing back from the left ventricle
- 22. carries oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the left atrium of the heart
- 23. Helps the hearts wall expand and contract when the heart beats
- 24. Directs the blood the the left corresponding lung
- 25. Carries blood from the lower body
- 26. The thin smooth membrane that lines the inside of the chamber of the heart and it forms the surface of valves
- 28. originates in the ventricular wall
- 29. Carries blood from the head, arms, and upper body
Down
- 1. A serous membrane that forms the innermost layer of the pericardium and the outer surface of the heart
- 2. Opens to increase Pressure as the left atrium fills with blood
- 5. Is found in the mitral and tricuspid valves
- 8. When connects with the cephalic vein it forms the subclavian vein
- 9. Known as heart strings
- 10. is approximately 3cm in diameter and 5cm in length
- 13. Below the left atrium separated by the mitral valve
- 16. Middle muscular layer of the hearts wall
- 17. Carries blood from the lungs back to the left atrium
- 19. forms the boundary between the right ventricle and the right atrium
- 21. Oval shaped depression
- 27. Drains oxygen depleted blood from the kidney
- 30. Supply’s oxygenated blood to the circulatory system
