Pulmonary Valve
Walls of the left ventricle is thicker because...
It has to pump blood far away from the heart (to all the cells of the body)
Aortic valve is also called....

Units that form the kidneys and filtrate the blood

Name of the vessels that enter and exist from the right ventricle
Superior and inferior vena cava. Pulmonary artery.
Tissue found in the heart
Cardiac muscle tissue
The measurement of the amount of force that blood places on the walls of the blood vessels
Blood Pressure
External layer of the kidney
Cortex
Cells involved in fighting against infections
