The heart __________ blood.
deoxygenates |
|
oxygenates |
|
creates |
|
filters |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
The two heart chambers that collect blood are called:
atria |
|
valves |
|
aorta |
|
ventricles |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.

|
fourth |

Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?
trachea |
|
nasal cavity |
|
epiglottis |

Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis which prevents food from entering the airway.
