Blood is circulated throughout the body via:
veins |
|
capillaries |
|
aorta |
|
arterioles |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)

pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. A solution with a pH of 9 is:
acidic |
|
alkaline |
|
neutral |
|
water |
An acid is a substance that gives up positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. A base (alkaline) gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. Numbered from 0 to 14, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, less than 7 are acidic, more than 7 are alkaline.
