The Heart and Circulatory System Quiz

Label the heart correctly

Which side of the heart deals with deoxygenated blood?

Which one(s) of the following can cause Coronary Heart Disease?

Veins [blank_start]return[blank_end] deoxygenated blood to the heart and arteries take [blank_start]oxygenated[blank_end] blood [blank_start]away[blank_end] from the heart, with the exception of the [blank_start]pulmonary[blank_end] artery which takes deoxygenated blood to the lungs.

What does diastole mean?

Starting from the left atrium, state the order in which the blood flows through including lungs, valves, veins and arteries. First, oxygenated blood is pumped from the left atrium, through the [blank_start]bicuspid[blank_end] valve and into the left [blank_start]ventricle[blank_end]. Then, the blood gets pumped through the [blank_start]semi-lunar[blank_end] valve and through the [blank_start]aorta[blank_end] where it gets transported to the rest of the body. After it has been through the body and the oxygen has been used, the deoxygenated blood travels through the [blank_start]vena cava[blank_end] to the right [blank_start]atrium[blank_end]. The right atrium then contracts, pushing the blood through the [blank_start]tricuspid[blank_end] valve and into the [blank_start]right ventricle[blank_end] where it contracts to and forces the blood through the [blank_start]semi-lunar[blank_end] valve into the [blank_start]pulmonary[blank_end] artery to the lungs to be oxygenated. The then oxygenated blood gets pushed back to the heart via the [blank_start]pulmonary[blank_end] vein back into the left atrium.

What is the piece of tissue separating each side of the heart?

Which of the following are main functions of the cardiovascular system

How can carbon dioxide be transported in the blood? (More than one)

Valves help with the [blank_start]unidirectional[blank_end] flow of blood

Coronary arteries supply the heart muscle with [blank_start]glucose[blank_end] and [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end]

The [blank_start]medulla oblongata[blank_end] controls how fast the heart beats

Systemic circulation is when [blank_start]oxygenated blood from the left ventricle[blank_end] is transported to the [blank_start]whole of the body's tissues[blank_end] [blank_start]by a network of arteries and arterioles[blank_end].
