Heart, Blood, Lungs

What are the four (4) chambers of the heart? 

Right atrium, Left atrium, Right ventricle, Left ventricle

List the names of the 3 layers of the heart and describe where they are located.

Endocardium (Inner layer), Myocardium (Middle Layer), Pericardium (Outer layer)

What is the name of the part that separates the heart into left and right sides?

The Septum

Name the 4 valves of the heart and describe where they are located.

The four valves of the heart are the Tricuspid valve (between right atrium and right ventricle), Pulmonary valve (between right ventricle and pulmonary artery), Mitral valve (between left atrium and left ventricle), and Aortic valve (between left ventricle and aorta).

List the three (3) different types of blood vessels and explain what they do.

Arteries: Carry blood away (heart)
Capillaries: They’re like a connection tube for the arteries and veins

Veins: Carry blood towards (heart)

What are the four (4) functions of blood?

• Carries nutrients and oxygen

• delivers them (body cells)

• picks up waste

• fights infection

Name the four parts of blood and describe the function of each.  (ex.: liquid and solid parts)

Red Blood Cells: transports substance

White Blood Cells: fight infections

Platelets: the process of blood clotting 

Plasma: transports substance

What are the two types of circulation? Provide an explanation of the route of circulation for each.

Systemic Circulation: Carries blood from heart to all parts of the body then back to heart

Pulmonary Circulation: Carries blood from heart to lungs then back again to the heart

What are the 3 types of blood cells and what do they do?

Erythrocytes (Red Blood Cell): transports substance
Leukocytes (White Blood Cells):fight infections

Platelets: process of blood clotting

List the 4 blood types, then label which is the universal donor and which is the universal receiver.

Blood Types: A, B, AB, O

Universal Donor: O-
Universal Receiver: AB+

Trace the electrical circuit / pathway in the heart and describe where each is located.  

1. Blood goes from the body to the heart.

2. Blood gets pumped from the right atrium to the ventricle (right)

3. Blood gets pumped from the ventricle (right) to the pulmonary artery

4. Blood goes to the heart after the lungs

5. Blood pumped from the left atrium goes to the left ventricle

6. The blood gets pumped to the aorta from the left ventricle

Explain the three (3) different types of air volume in the lungs.

Tidal Volume: A person's normal breathing (how they normally breath)

Vital Volume: The maximum amount of air a person can exhale after inhaling

Residual Volume: The remaining amount of air a person has after exhaling all their air

List the structures of the respiratory system and describe the function of each. 

Lungs, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli, Larynx, Pharynx, Diaphragm, Epiglottis

List and describe the three (3) different types of respiration.

Ventilation (air between lungs and environment) , External (breathing process), Internal (the exchange of gasses)
