These are the superior receiving chambers of the heart.

What are the left and right atria?

100

These vascular tubes transport blood away from the heart.

What are arteries?

100

This is the maximum arterial pressure as well as the top number reading when someone has their blood pressure ,easured.

What is systolic pressure? Systolic pressure represents the force of blood pushing against artery walls when the heart beats, in essence the maximum pressure during the heart's contraction phase (systole). 

100

There are 2 circulations connected in series within the human body.

What are the pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation?

100

This chamber receives blood from the pulmonary veins.

What is the left atrium?

200

True or False: Papillary Muscles are muscles that control the opening of the heart's tricuspid and mitral (bicuspid) valves.

What is TRUE: Papillary Muscles are muscles that control the opening of the heart's tricuspid and mitral (bicuspid) valves.

300

True or False: The epicardium is the cardiac muscle layer of the heart.

What is the False? The myocardium is the cardiac muscle layer of the heart.

300
This is the place where blood releases oxygen while receiving carbon dioxide.

What is diastole?
300
Blood flows from the superior and inferior vena cava into this heart structure.
What is the right atrium?
400

This is the valve located between the left atrium and left ventricle.

What is the mitral (bicuspid) valve?

True or False: Cardiac veins drain deoxygenated blood from the heart into the right atrium.

What is TRUE? Cardiac veins drain deoxygenated blood from the heart into the right atrium.

500
These are the blood vessels that contain valves.
What are veins?
