Down: 2) The heart valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle that prevents the back flow of blood into the right atrium.3) 4) The part of the circulatory system that moves blood between the heart and lungs; controlled by the right side of heart. 6) The force exerted by the blood on the walls of the blood vessels; created by the pumping action of the heart.8) Contraction of the heart9) The heart valve that lies between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery that prevents the back flow of blood into the right ventricle.11) Cells lining the blood vessels.12) The part of the circulatory system that moves blood between the heart and the rest of the body; controlled by the left side of the heart.13) Vessels that carry blood to the heart17) The heart valve between the left ventricle and the aorta that prevents the back flow of blood into the left ventricle.19) The process by which oxygen moves from the lungs to the blood and carbon dioxide moves from the blood to the lungs; faster breathing concentrates oxygen and decreases carbon dioxide are toxic to the body. Across: 1) Vessels that carry blood away from the heart.5) A pair of large blood vessels that branch off the aorta and supply the heart muscle with oxygenated blood.7) Relaxation of the heart10) A gas released by the endothelial cells to promote blood flow. The capacity of these cells to release nitric oxide is an important marker of good health.14) The large veins through which blood is returned to the right atrium of the heart.15) The system that circulates blood through the body; consists heart, blood vessels, and respiratory system.16) One of the two lower chambers of the heart from which blood flows through arteries to the lungs and other parts of the body.18) One of the two upper chambers of the heart in which blood collects before passing to the ventricles (atria)20) The body's large artery; receives blood from the left ventricle and distributes it to the body.21) A gas produced during the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, protein, and acids. During exercise, the body manages increased levels of carbon dioxide by breathing faster. Plants use carbon dioxide to capture energy through photosynthesis, but high levels of carbon dioxide in the lungs and promotes diffusion.22) The heart valve that lies between the left atrium and left ventricle that prevents the back flow of blood into the left atrium.23) Very small blood vessels that distribute blood to all parts of the body.
