Which of the following are functions of the cardiovascular system?
Order the path of deoxygenated blood starting at the body
Leaves the pulmonary arteries to go to the lungs
Inferior/Superior vena cava
Right atrium
Pulmonary artery
The valve between the atrium and ventricle (tricuspid valve)
The valve between the ventricle and artery (pulmonary valve)
Right ventricle
What are the small sacks in the lungs where the majority of gas exchange happens?
As the blood passes by the alveoli through the capillaries which of the following occurs?
Order the path of oxygenated blood starting at the lungs
Aorta
Left ventricle
Leaves the aorta to go to the body
Pulmonary veins
Left atrium
The valve between the atrium and ventricle (mitral valve)
The valve between the ventricle and the artery (aortic valve)
As the blood passes by the cells in our calves through the capillaries which of the following occurs?
This question is just asking about the chambers of the heart (match the letters to the structure)
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
I | arrow_right_alt | Right atrium |
H | arrow_right_alt | Right ventricle |
B | arrow_right_alt | Left atrium |
D | arrow_right_alt | Left ventricle |
This question is just asking about the arteries and ventricles of the heart (match the letters to the structure)
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
E | arrow_right_alt | Superior vena cava |
F | arrow_right_alt | Aorta |
G | arrow_right_alt | Pulmonary artery |
A | arrow_right_alt | Pulmonary veins |
What are the names of the structures that C is pointing to? They prevent back flow in the heart.
What is J pointing to?
What is the name of the circuit that carries blood to and from the body and the heart
What is the name of the circuit that carries blood to and from the lungs and the heart
This question is asking about the cardiac cycle. Match the following into the functions of the two nodes in the heart
Directly leads to the contraction of the ventricles
Sends a signal down the interventricular septum
Receives a signal from the SA node
Signals the contraction of the atria
Receives a signal directly from the brain
Signals the AV node
Is also known as the pacemaker
Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)
Atrioventricular Node (AV Node)
Sort the following into the different types of blood vessels
Has thinner walls (not as thin as capillaries)
Contains valves
Carries blood away from the heart
Carries blood to the heart
Needs to have a lot of elasticity because of the high pressure from the blood pumping
The aorta is an example of this type of blood vessel
Is lined in skeletal muscle
Is the main site of nutrient and gas exchange
The smallest blood vessels
Has the thickest walls
The vena cava is an example of this type of blood vessel
Has very thin and porous walls
Has a very large overall area so the blood pressure is low so the blood moves slowest inside of them
Arteries
Veins
Capillaries
What is the majority of blood made up of (it contains water, nutrients, and some carbon dioxide)
Sort the following into the different blood cells
Important in clotting
Contains hemoglobin
Cell fragments
Carries oxygen
Helps to fight off infections
Red blood cells
White blood cells
Platelets
What is the protein in red blood cells that is attracted to and carries oxygen?
Sort the following for blood pressure calculations
The number that is in the denominator (bottom)
The number that is in the numerator (top)
The pressure caused by the contraction of the ventricles
The lower number
The higher number
Systolic Pressure
Diastolic Pressure
