The purpose of the heart is to __________.
What is to…pump blood to all parts of the body.
100
The liquid portion of the blood is known as __________.
What is plasma?
100
Describe the purpose of the circulatory system.
What is... to move oxygen and nutrients to all cells in the body and remove waste (carbon dioxide) from all cells in the body.
100
Name the 3 types of blood vessels through which blood flows.
What are…arteries, veins, and capillaries.
100
What is the smallest unit of life?
What is… the cell.
200
The heart contains __________ chambers and __________ valves. (Answer is a number.)
What is…4 and 4.
200
What are the 3 types of cells found in the blood?
What are... red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
200
Name the 3 parts of the circulatory system AND describe how blood flows in each part.
What is…coronary, pulmonary, and systemic? Coronary is the flow of blood to and from the tissues of the heart. Pulmonary is the flow of blood to and from the lungs. Systemic is the flow of blood to and from the body.
200
Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart are called __________, but blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart are called __________.
What are... arteries and veins.
200
A group of cells make up _____________.
What is…tissue.
300
The __________ side of the heart contains oxygen-poor blood, but the __________ side of the heart contains oxygen-rich blood.
What is…right and left.
300
The function of red blood cells is to __________. The function of white blood cells is to __________, and the function of platelets is to __________.
What is to... carry oxygen to all cells in the body; to attack and protect the body from bacteria, viruses, and other invaders; contribute clotting factors so as to prevent uncontrolled bleeding.
300
What is the LARGEST chamber of the heart? Explain Why!
What is…the left ventricle. The left ventricle is the largest because it has to pump blood the furthest away from the heart.
300
What blood vessel connects arteries and veins?
What is…capillary.
300
Tissues make up __________. Give an example of.
What is…organs AND examples include heart, lungs, stomach, etc.
400
The chambers located at the top of the heart are called __________, but the chambers located at the bottom of the heart are called __________.
What is…atria AND ventricles.
400
What percentage of blood contains: platelets? plasma? red blood cells? white blood cells?
What is… platelets = 0.5% plasma = 55% red blood cells = 44% white blood cells = 0.5%
400
Describe the two loops of the circulatory system.
What is…The first loop is the circulation of blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart. The second loop is the circulation of blood from the heart to the body and back to the heart.
400
Why are capillaries important? Think about their function.
What is…to exchange gases- oxygen and carbon dioxide.
400
Organs make up __________. Give an example of.
What is…organ systems. Examples include digestive system, respiratory system, circulatory system, etc.
500
WHERE is the septum located and WHY is the septum important?
What is …down the middle of the heart separating the right side of the heart and the left side of the heart AND to prevent oxygen poor blood from mixing with oxygen rich blood.
500
What molecule is found on red blood cells to which oxygen binds?
What is…hemoglobin.
500
Beginning with the right atrium, describe the flow of blood through both loops- include all chambers, arteries, and veins.
What is…right atrium, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary veins, left atrium, left ventricle, aorta, body, vena caves, start back over at right atrium.
500
Arrange in order by size (the thickness of their vessel walls), the 3 blood vessels and EXPLAIN the reason for the arrangement.
What are… Arteries, Veins, & Capillaries. Arteries are the thickest: 3 cell layer with thick middle layer of muscle; Veins are thinner than arteries: 3 cell layer with a much thinner middle layer of muscle; Capillaries are the thinnest : only 1 cell layer thick.
500
Beginning with the smallest unit, list the organization of life all the way to the complete organism.
What are... cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and the organism!
