Across
  1. 5. these are the first branches of the aorta
  2. 7. this region of the heart points to the left side
  3. 10. these arteries are branches of the internal thoracic arteries
  4. 11. these arteries are direct branches of the thoracic aorta
  5. 14. these are the flap-like extensions off of the atria
  6. 17. this circuit includes the left ventricle, organs of the body, and right atrium
  7. 19. this is the first branch of the arch of the aorta
  8. 21. region of the lung where bronchi and pulmonary vessels enter/exit
  9. 22. these vessels deliver blood to the brachiocephalic veins from the upper limbs and anterior rib cage
  10. 24. the portion of the "throat" that is at the posterior end of the nasal cavity
  11. 26. region of the thoracic cavity that contains the heart
  12. 29. folds in the nasal cavity that increase surface area for warming and moistening the air that is inhaled
  13. 31. this circuit includes the right ventricle, lungs and left atrium
  14. 34. receives blood from the head, arms and ribcage
  15. 35. gas found in higher concentrations in the left atrium
  16. 37. word used to describe the serous membrane lining being found on the organ of interest
  17. 38. lining of the cavity that contains the lungs
Down
  1. 1. these ridges are found in the walls of the atria
  2. 2. this vein receives blood from the posterior side of the rib cage
  3. 3. this vein runs with the anterior interventricular artery and the circumflex artery to drain into the coronary sinus
  4. 4. the number of these structures correlates with the number of lobes in the lung it serves
  5. 6. separations found between lobes of the same lung
  6. 8. location in respiratory system where gas exchange occurs
  7. 9. type of vessel where gas, nutrient and waste exchange is possible
  8. 12. this receiving chamber interacts with blood that has deoxygenated blood (meaning it has a high concentration of carbon dioxide)
  9. 13. number of lobes in the left lung of a human
  10. 15. this atrioventricular valve is found on the right side of the heart
  11. 16. this vein runs with the posterior interventricular artery to deliver blood into the coronary sinus
  12. 18. word used to describe the serous membrane being on the walls of the cavity containing the organs of interest
  13. 20. this is the outermost layer of pericardium
  14. 23. this branch of the left coronary artery wraps around the heart
  15. 25. innermost lining of the heart
  16. 27. the number of lobes in the right lung of a human
  17. 28. receives blood from the surface of the heart
  18. 30. type of cartilage that the larynx and rings of the trachea are composed of
  19. 32. the anterior interventricular artery is a branch of this coronary artery
  20. 33. receives blood from the lower limbs and abdomen
  21. 36. considered the "wind pipe" and is inferior to the larynx
