Heart Cloze
The heart is made of _________tissue and it pumps blood around the body
to deliver ___________ and _________ to all the cells in the body. The
nutrients enter the blood from the ___________ system to be carried to all
parts of the body. The oxygen is collected from the _________where it is
exchanged for _________ dioxide. The heart is divided into four sections
called ____________, the left and right atria (singular atrium) at the top
and the left and ________ ventricles at the bottom.
Blood is pumped from the right _______ through an _________ to the
lungs. Oxygen is ____________ for carbon dioxide in the capillaries in the
lungs. The blood that now contains oxygen (oxygenated) is then carried
back to the heart via a ______ to the left atrium. This oxygenated blood
then passes into the left ventricle through a _______ and is pumped to all
parts of the body. The oxygen and nutrients pass to the body cells from the
____________ and carbon dioxide is collected. The blood is now called
deoxygenated blood. This ______________ blood is carried back to the
right ________ of the heart. It then passes to the right ventricle through
another heart valve ready to be ___________ to the lungs again to collect
more oxygen. The blood circulation is like a figure of _________.

Heart Cloze
The heart is made of muscle tissue and it pumps blood around the body to
deliver nutrients and oxygen to all the cells in the body. The nutrients
enter the blood from the digestive system to be carried to all parts of the
body. The oxygen is collected from the lungs where it is exchanged for
carbon dioxide. The heart is divided into four sections called chambers, the
left and right atria (singular atrium) at the top and the left and right
ventricles at the bottom.
Blood is pumped from the right ventricle through an artery to the lungs.
Oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the capillaries in the lungs. The
blood that now contains oxygen (oxygenated) is then carried back to the
heart via a vein to the left atrium. This oxygenated blood then passes into
the left ventricle through a valve and is pumped to all parts of the body.
The oxygen and nutrients pass to the body cells from the capillaries and
carbon dioxide is collected. The blood is now called deoxygenated blood.
This deoxygenated blood is carried back to the right atrium of the heart. It
then passes to the right ventricle through another heart valve ready to be
pumped to the lungs again to collect more oxygen. The blood circulation is
like a figure of eight.
