Chamber of the heart that pumps blood to the lungs
Chamber of the heart. Receives blood from the body.
The two tubes that the trachea branch into
Largest artery
Cavity where you find the heart and lungs
Body system that acts a transportation system delivering oxygen and nutrients
Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart
Location in respiratory system where air is filtered, warmed, and moistened
The passageway for both food and air
Protein in blood that carries oxygen
Commonly known as the windpipe
Blood vessels that carry blood to the heart
Process in which oxygen moves into cells, high to low
lack of oxygen due to suffocation, drowning, hanging, etc
Respiratory diseases
Circulatory system diseases
The voicebox
Location you can measure your heart rate
Muscle that controls breathing
