Ventricles
_____________ is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenated
blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated (oxygen-rich) blood
back to the heart. - CORRECT ANSWER-Pulmonary circuit
The only Vein that carries oxygenated blood is the __________ - CORRECT ANSWER-
Pulmonary Vein
Only Artery that carries deoxygenated blood is the __________ - CORRECT ANSWER-
Pulmonary artery
Coronary Artery - CORRECT ANSWER-The aorta (the main blood supplier to the body)
branches off into two main coronary blood vessels (also called arteries). which supply
oxygen-rich blood to the entire heart muscle.
, Coronary Vein - CORRECT ANSWER-It delivers deoxygenated blood to the right
atrium, as do the superior and inferior vena cavae.

tapered cusps. - CORRECT ANSWER-Bicuspid (Mitral) Valve
Superior Vena Cava - CORRECT ANSWER-Returns used blood from the head and
neck to get oxygen
Inferior Vena Cava - CORRECT ANSWER-returns used blood from the lower body) to
get oxygen
