Cardiovascular System: It's a Matter of the Heart

Labeling The Heart Label the parts of the heart on the diagram by using the following word bank:SeptumLeft VentricleAortaSuperior Vena CavaLeft AtriumRight VentricleInferior Vena CavaRight Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle Left Atrium Right Atrium Superior Vena Cava Inferior Vena Cava Aorta Septum Visualizing How the Human Heart Pumps Blood Complete the questions after watching the video. 1. The normal heart has four chambers. 2. Red blood cells will come from either the Superior or Inferior Vena Cava and enter the right atrium.3. The blood then flows across the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle.4. The right ventricle squeezes and ejects that blood cell into the pulmonary artery.5. The pulmonary artery splits into vessels, each going to the lungs.6. As the red blood cell returns through the lungs, it makes its way through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium, which that blood is now oxygenated.7. This blood then goes across the valve into the left ventricle. That blood cell is now ejected into the aorta. Matching Match the cardiovascular term from the left column to the corresponding definition in the right column. Artery Carries oxygenated blood AWAY from heart Veins Carries deoxygenated blood back INTO the heart Heart The muscle that acts as the pump for the circulatory system Two upper chambers of the heart Atria Two lower chambers of the heart Ventricles Septum Separates the atria and the ventricles in the heart
