Bones
Air enters the body through these two structures before moving down the trachea.
Mouth and Nose

Arteries
This part of the brain is responsible for breathing and heart rate

Tendons
This process is how our body uses oxygen to produce energy at the cellular level.
Cellular Respiration
If a vampire bit into a vein instead of an artery, they'd find this type of blood, low in oxygen and darker in color.
Deoxygenated Blood
The circulatory system primarily functions to transport these TWO essential elements to cells, and remove waste.
Transport Oxygen and Nutrients
This part of the nervous system consists of nerves branching off from the spinal cord
Peripheral Nervous System
Bones in the human body also contain this soft, spongy material that includes fat and blood vessels.
Bone Marrow
These tiny sacs in the lungs are where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange happens.
Alveoli
Name the 4 components of blood
red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma
These are the only arteries that carry oxygen-poor blood, as they connect the heart to the lungs.
Pulmonary Arteries
These are chemical messengers that carry signals between neuron
Neurotransmitters
Muscles that attach to bones and allow voluntary movement are called this.
Skeletal Muscles
In the alveoli, oxygen does this to enter the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide exits.
Diffuses
