Across
- 2. Carries oxygenated blood to the left atrium from the lungs
- 4. Carries deoxygenated blood into the right atrium from the lower part of the body (everything below the heart)
- 5. Carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs
- 7. Carries oxygenated blood from the aorta to supply the heart
- 9. Pumps oxygenated blood into the body through the aorta; strongest chamber of the heart
- 11. Pumps deoxygenated blood into the pulmonary artery through the semilunar valve
- 14. Separates the left side of the heart from the right side of the heart
- 16. Collects oxygenated blood from the lungs as supplied by the pulmonary vein; pumps blood through the bicuspid valve to the left ventricle
- 17. Refers to blood carrying a low concentration of oxygen
- 18. Carries blood away from the heart; usually oxygenated, except pulmonary artery
Down
- 1. Carries deoxygenated blood into the right atrium from the upper part of the body (everything above the heart)
- 3. Two valves, one that opens and closes to pass blood into the pulmonary artery from the right ventricle (pulmonic), and one that opens and closes to pass blood into the aorta from the left ventricle (aortic)
- 6. Collects deoxygenated blood from the body as supplied by the superior and inferior vena cavae; pumps blood through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle
- 8. Refers to blood carrying a high concentration of oxygen
- 10. Valve that opens and closes to pass blood from the left atrium to the left ventricle
- 12. Valve that opens and closes in order to pass blood from the right atrium to the right ventricle
- 13. Carries oxygenated blood from the heart (specifically the left ventricle) to the whole body
- 15. Carries blood towards the heart; usually deoxygenated, except pulmonary vein
