Which of the following are functions of the cardiovascular system?
Order the path of deoxygenated blood starting at the body
Pulmonary artery
Right atrium
The valve between the atrium and ventricle (tricuspid valve)
Leaves the pulmonary arteries to go to the lungs
Right ventricle
The valve between the ventricle and artery (pulmonary valve)
Inferior/Superior vena cava
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
The valve between the atrium and ventricle (mitral valve)
Left atrium
Aorta
Leaves the aorta to go to the body
Left ventricle
Pulmonary veins
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)
| Stavka koja se može prevući | arrow_right_alt | Odgovarajuća stavka |
|---|---|---|
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)
| Stavka koja se može prevući | arrow_right_alt | Odgovarajuća stavka |
|---|---|---|
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
Receives a signal directly from the brain
Signals the AV node
Is also known as the pacemaker
Signals the contraction of the atria
Sends a signal down the interventricular septum
Directly leads to the contraction of the ventricles
Receives a signal from the SA node
Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)
Atrioventricular Node (AV Node)
Sort the following into the different types of blood vessels
Is the main site of nutrient and gas exchange
The aorta is an example of this type of blood vessel
Has very thin and porous walls
Needs to have a lot of elasticity because of the high pressure from the blood pumping
Has a very large overall area so the blood pressure is low so the blood moves slowest inside of them
Carries blood to the heart
The smallest blood vessels
Contains valves
Has the thickest walls
Is lined in skeletal muscle
Carries blood away from the heart
Has thinner walls (not as thin as capillaries)
The vena cava is an example of this type of blood vessel
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
Carries oxygen
Important in clotting
Helps to fight off infections
Contains hemoglobin
Cell fragments
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 higher number
The number that is in the denominator (bottom)
The pressure caused by the contraction of the ventricles
The lower number
The number that is in the numerator (top)
Systolic Pressure
Diastolic Pressure
