Circularity system

Across
To prevent back flow of blood into the right atrium
That portion of the septum that separates the two upper chambers (the right and left atria) of the heart is termed the atrial (or interatrial) septum while the portion of the septum that lies between the two lower chambers (the right and left ventricles) of the heart is called the ventricular (or interventricular)
Accepts oxygen-rich blood from the lungs
Opens to increase pressure as left atrium fills with blood
Carry oxygen poor blood to the lungs
The heart is the key organ in the circulatory system. As a hollow, muscular pump, its main function is to propel blood throughout the body. It usually beats from 60 to 100 times per minute, but can go much faster when necessary.
Pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body
Brings oxygen-rich blood from the left lung t the left lung to the left atrium
Brings oxygen-poor blood to the right atrium
Down
Pumps oxygen-poor blood to the lungs
Closes off the lower left chamber that holds the oxygen-rich blood before it is pumped out to the body. Opens to allow blood to leave the heart (from the left ventricle to the aorta and on to the body)
Brings oxygen poor blood from the upper body to the right atrium
The valve is opened by the increased blood pressure of the ventricular systole (contraction of the muscular tissue), pushing blood out of the heart and into the artery. It closes when the pressure drops inside the heart. It is located in the right ventricle of the heart.
Accepts oxygen-poor blood from the body
Bring oxygen-rich blood from the right lung to the left atrium
Arteries form part of the circulatory system. ... Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation (usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood)
Carries oxygen rich blood from the left ventricle to the body
