What is the circulatory system?
The blood vessel that has the thickest, strongest, most elastic walls is the __________?
What is arteries?
Name the pigment that gives red blood cells their colour.
What is hemoglobin?
Name two valve that is found on the right side of the heart and the valve that is found on the left side of the heart.
What is tricuspid valve (right) and bicuspid/mitral valve (left)
_______ circulation is the process of carrying oxygenated blood all around the body.
_______ circulation is the process of carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs to collect oxygen.
What is systemic circulation and what is pulmonary circulation.
One of the major functions of capillaries are ___________
What is gaseous exchange?
Correct this statement:
Lymphocytes eat pathogens while phagocytes produce antibodies that bind to pathogens.
What is phagocytes engulf pathogens and lymphocytes produce antibodies that bind to pathogens.
The stages of the cardiac cycle are: diastole, atrial systole and ventricular systole.
Describe how the heart behaves at each stage.
What is:
diastole: atria and ventricles relax together, allowing blood to enter the heart
atrial systole: atria contract, pushing blood into ventricles
ventricular systole: ventricles contract, forcing blood into arteries
State two functions of the blood in the human body
What is for transport (oxygen, carbon dioxide, food materials, urea, hormones, and heat), defense (white blood cells and platelets) and temperature regulation
Teacher will display a photo and you will identify the blood vessels labeled A, B and C.
What is:
A: arteries
B: veins
C: capillaries
On a site visit to a hospital, Dana views some blood slides under a microscope and observe some differences in the blood cells.
Suggest TWO differences Dana may have observed between the red blood cells and the white blood cells.
What is no nucleus and biconcave disks (donuts that didn't get their hole completed) for red blood cells and What is a large, round nucleus or a lobed nucleus.
Congratulations! You get BONUS points for your bravery!!!
Hurray!
Which side of the heart is:
1. Oxygenated
2. Deoxygenated
Left: oxygenated
Right: deoxygenated
Complete the statement:
Arteries carry ________ blood _____ from the heart; but the exception is the ________ artery.
Veins carry ________ blood ______ the heart; but the exception is the _________ vein.
What is:
oxygenated; pulmonary artery
deoxygenated; pulmonary vein
Teacher will display a photo of white blood cells. You will identify the two types of white blood cells shown and state 2 reasons for your answer.
What is:
phagocytes: lobed nucleus and granular cytoplasm
lymphocytes: large round nucleus and non-granular cytoplasm
Use the arrows in the diagram that the teacher will display. Explain how the heart functions as a double pump while outlining and explaining how blood flows through the heart.
On the right side, deoxygenated blood enters the vena cava, then right atrium, into the right ventricle and up into the pulmonary artery where blood is taken to the lungs.
State 3 differences between arteries and veins.
1. All arteries carry oxygenated blood except the pulmonary artery; veins carry deoxygenated blood except the pulmonary vein
2. Arteries carry fast, high pressured blood; veins carry slow, low pressured blood
3. Arteries have a small lumen; veins have a large lumen
4. Arteries do not have any valves; veins have valves
5. Arteries have thick, elastic walls; veins have thin elastic walls
6. Arteries are found deep within the body; veins are found close to the surface of the body
