Question
Where does the deoxygenated blood go to next?
Answer
  • Left atrium
  • Right Ventricle

Answer
  • Pulmonary Vein
  • Vena Cava
  • Pulmonary Artery
  • Aorta

Question 4

Question
The oxygenated blood then passes through the left ventricle into the main bloodstream, but through which vessel?
Answer
  • Pulmonary Vein
  • Vena Cava
  • Pulmonary Artery
  • Aorta

Question 5

Question
Which side of the heart is thicker, and why?
Answer
  • Right because it absorbs all the nutrients quicker than the left side
  • Right because it has to pump blood all the way to the lungs
  • Left because it's closer to the brain so it gets all the leftovers
  • Left because it has to pump blood around the whole body

Question 6

Question
What is the purpose of valves in the heart?
Answer
  • To slow down the rate of blood flow
  • To separate oxygenated blood from deoxygenated blood

  • Deoxyhaemoglobin
  • Oxyhaemoglobin

Question 15

Question
What are the 2 roles of platelets?
Answer
  • To stop blood flowing to the lungs and to fight white blood cells
  • To prevent blood loss and the entry of pathogens
  • To kill red blood cells and carry blood to the brain
