Which type of blood
vessel is only one cell
layer thick?
capillary
Which type of blood
vessel measures the
highest blood pressure?
artery
Which type of blood
vessel contains a layer
of smooth muscle?
arteries and veins
What type of blood
vessel contains valves to
prevent blood from
flowing backwards?
veins
What type of blood
vessel is the aorta?
artery
Name the three types of
circulation.
coronary, pulmonary,
and systemic
What type of circulation
carries blood to the
lungs?
pulmonary circulation
What type of circulation
covers the largest area?
systemic circulation
What is the general
pathway of blood’s
circulation?
heart→lungs→heart→body
Coronary circulation
provides blood flow to
the __________.
heart
Name the four chambers
of the heart.
right atrium, right
ventricle, left atrium,
and left ventricle
Which side of the heart
contains deoxygenated
blood?
right side
Why is the left ventricle
larger than the right
ventricle?
The left ventricle is larger
because it has to pump
blood all over the body.
(The right ventricle pumps
blood to the lungs.)
What part of the heart
separates the right
ventricle from the left
ventricle?
septum
A(n) _____ carries blood
away from the heart,
and a(n) _____ carries
blood to the heart.
An artery carries blood
away from the heart, and a
vein carries blood to the
heart.
What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure measures
the force of blood on the
artery walls.
What does the systolic
number measure?
ventricular contraction
What does the diastolic
number measure?
ventricular relaxation
What is a
sphygmomanometer?
A sphygmomanometer is
the instrument used to
measure blood pressure.
What is the scientific
term for high blood
pressure?
hypertension
What does
cardiovascular disease
affect first?
heart and blood vessels
What is atherosclerosis?
Atherosclerosis is commonly
called “hardening of the
arteries.” It occurs when
plaque builds up in the
arteries and restricts blood
flow.
Name three things you
can do to help prevent
cardiovascular disease.
eat healthy, exercise
regularly, and do not smoke
What numbers indicate a
healthy (or average)
blood pressure reading?
120/80
In the blood pressure
reading 136/82, which
number is the diastolic
number and which number
is the systolic number?
136 = systolic
82 = diastolic

What did we say was the
main job of the
circulatory system?
It transports. (oxygen,
