Figure Identification
100
This chamber receives blood from the body
What is the the right atrium?
100
these blood vessels carry blood away from the heart
what are arteries?
100
these cells carry oxygen throughout the body
what are red blood cells?
100
This blood type has no A or B markers
What is type O?
100
This is the force of blood pushing against blood vessel walls
what is blood pressure?
100
Identify A
Red blood cell
200
this chamber pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body
what is the left ventricle?
200
these blood vessels carry blood back to the heart
what are veins?
200
these cells fight infections
what are white blood cells?
200
People with this blood type can receive blood from all types
What is Type AB?
200
this condition is when blood pressure stays too high.
what is hypertension?
200
Identify B
White Blood Cell
300
This structure separates the left and right sides of the heart
what is the septum?
300
this is where oxygen, nutrients, and wastes are exchanged
what are capillaries?
300
These help blood clot and stop bleeding
what are platelets?
300
This happens of someone receives the wrong blood type
What is a dangerous immune reaction / clumping?
300
This disease occurs when fatty materials builds up in arteries
what is atherosclerosis?
300
Identify C
Platelets
400
these structures prevent blood from flowing backward in the heart
what are valves?
400
arteries have thick walls because they handle this.
what is high blood pressure from the heart pumping?
400
this liquid part of blood carries nutrients and wastes
what is plasma?
400
This blood type is often called the universal donor
What is Type O?
400
Thus type of exercise benefit strengthens the heart muscle
what is regular exercise improving cardiovascular health?
400
Identify C and what does it do?
Valve - prevent blood from flowing backward
500
this is the largest artery that carries blood away from the heart
what is the aorta?
500
these three layers make up artery walls.
What are epithelial tissue, smooth muscle, and connective tissue?
500
Blood types are determined by these on red blood cells.
what are marker molecules (antigens)?
500
These determine blood type and sit on red blood cells
What are antigens?
500
This happens when blood flow to heart muscle is blocked
what is a heart attack?
500
Identify D - is it oxygen-rich or oxygen-poor?
Left Ventricle - Blood entering the left ventricle is high in oxygen, because it has just come from the left atrium, which receives oxygen-rick blood from the lungs.
