How many chambers does the heart have?
What are the top chambers called?
The bottom chambers?
Which side of the heart pumps oxygenated blood?
Deoxygenated blood?
__________________ prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria, in the
veins.
Humans have a double circulatory system: it consists of two separate circulations –
pulmonary and systemic. In systemic circulation, oxygenated/deoxygenated (choose
one) is carried away from the heart. In pulmonary circulation,
oxygenated/deoxygenated (choose one) is carried away from the heart.
What organelle do red blood cells lack?
Where do we find hemoglobin?
What is its function?
What is oxyhemoglobin?
Veins carry blood away from/towards (choose one) the heart. Arteries carry blood
away from/towards (choose one) the heart.
We usually think of veins as carrying deoxygenated blood and arteries as carrying
oxygenated blood. Which vein and artery are an exception to this?
What is the function of the SA (sinoatrial) node?
Where is it located?
I can trace blood flow, naming each structure the blood goes through from deoxygenated
blood entering the heart from the body tissues, through the heart to the lungs and
oxygenated blood returning to the heart and then being pumped back to the body tissues.
How many valves are in the heart?
What is the job of these valves?
What are the names of the 4 valves of the heart and where are they?
Which blood vessel opens into the right atrium?
Which blood vessel leaves the left ventricle?
What is the largest artery in the human heart, and where is it located.
What is the liquid portion of blood called?
The solid portion?
What is another name for red blood cells?
Which blood cell is responsible for producing antibodies?
What is a leucocyte? Neutrophil?
What does a monocyte do?
What does it mature into?
What does a phagocytic white blood cell do?
What does a lymphocyte do?
What cells can kill cancer cells in our body?
What are killer T cells? Suppressor T cells?
What body fluid plays a major role in maintaining optimum body temperature?
How does the body conserve heat when the external environment is much colder than
body temperature?
How do alcohol and nicotine affect heat loss?
What is a factor causing an increase in blood pressure: vasodilation/vasoconstriction
(choose one).
Oxygenated blood is pumped from the left ventricle through the _________________.
What is the function of the coronary pathway of the circulatory system?
Oxygenated blood from the lungs returns to the _____________ side of the heart through the
________________________.
Deoxygenated blood is pumped from the ____________________________________ of the heart

through the ____________________ to the lungs.
Which blood type is considered a “universal donor”? _______ Rh __
What antigen does type A blood contain?
Type B?
Type AB?
O?
What antibody does type A blood contain?
Type B?
Type AB?
O?
What is leukemia?
What is systole? Diastole?
Where are white blood cells produced?
Which blood cell has a life span of about 4 months before being destroyed in the spleen?
Know the cardiovascular and immune system diseases mentioned in the notes:
hemophila, leukemia, and anemia, atherosclerosis, autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid
arthritis, Type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetes, allergies, asthma
Describe homeostasis in the cardiovascular system in terms of pH, temperature, blood
pressure, heart rate, cardiac output.
How do medical personnel use blood smears to determine patient health?
Describe the immune system response in humans.
