Xandra Armijo Unit 4
Across
- 3. lower, larger chambers that send blood out from the heart
- 5. required to obtain the energy from glucose
- 9. longest phase when blood is filling the atria
- 10. narrows the lumen of blood vessels
- 11. higher than normal heart rate
- 12. must travel between the body, heart and lungs
- 13. carries blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs
- 15. one complete sequence of pumping/filling; avg adult completes one in 0.8 seconds
- 16. two from each lung to the heart
- 18. effects include: body position, diet and medication use, overall health, activity level, emotional state and temperature
- 20. lower right atrium; delays spreading the electrical impulses for 0.1 seconds
- 22. delivery of oxygen rich blood to the body and it's return deoxygenated to the heart
- 24. persistent high blood pressure
- 25. ultrasound test that allows pictures of the hearts structure
Down
- 1. effects include: age, genetics, diet and weight, stress or smoking, overall physical activity and medication use or overall health
- 2. occurs due to relaxation of the tunica media and the expansion of the lumen
- 4. uses a "balloon" to open partially blocked blood vessels
- 6. movement of blood between the lungs and heart
- 7. upper right atrium; triggers the cells of both atria to contract at the same time
- 8. phase when blood is send out of the heart
- 14. upper, smaller chambers that receive blood into the heart
- 17. shows electrical activity in the heart
- 19. made up of similar cells performing a particular function
- 21. Arterial Pressure used to measure the adequacy of blood getting to vital organs and tissues
- 23. uses x-ray and dyes to look at the blood flow thru certain blood vessels
