| Veins | Blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart |
| Blood Pressure | A measure of the amount of force that the blood places on the walls of the blood vessels, particularly large arteries as it is pumped through the body. |
| Cardiovascular System | The network of blood vessels and the heart that pumps blood throughout the body. |
| Pleurisy | An inflammation of the lining of the lungs and chest activity |
| Asthma | An inflammatory condition in which the trachea, bronchi and bronchioles become narrowed causing difficulty in breathing |
| Muscular System | A complicated system of 650 muscles that coordinates and produces movement by shorthening and lengthening muscles. |
| Aerobic | Energy producing system within the muscle that requires oxygen and is used for long steady journeys. |
| Diaphragm | A 0large dome-shaped muscle that separates the chest and the abdomen. |
| Respiration | The exchange of gases between the body and the environment |
| Larynx | Voice box |
| Arteries | Blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the body. |
| Cardiorespiratory Endurance | The ability of the heart, blood, blood vessels and lungs to supply oxygen to the muscles during long periods of physical activity. |
| Bronchitis | An inflammation of the bronchi caused infection or exposed to irritants such as tobacco smoke or air pollution. |
| Hemoglobin | The oxygen carrying protein in blood |
| Anerobic | Energy producing system within the muscle that is without oxygen and is used for short burst of power and speed. |
| Anemia | A condition in which the ability of the blood to carry oxygen is reduced. |
| Respiratory System | The passageways, muscles and lungs that allow oxygen to be breathed in (inhaled) and carbon dioxide to be breathed out (exhaled) |
| Bronchi | The airway that connects the trachea and the lungs. |
| Emphysema | A disease that progressively destroys the walls of the alveoli. |
| Pneumonia | An inflammation of the lungs commonly caused by a bacteria or viral infection. |
| Trachea | Part of the respiratory system sometimes referred to as the windpipe. |
| Lymph | The clear fluid that fills the spaces around body cells. |
| Cardiovascular Disease | A disease that affects the heart and blood vessels. |
| Tuberculosis | A contagious bacterial infection that usually affects the lungs. |
| Capillaries | Smallest of the blood vessels and the place where tissues of the body exchange carbon dioxide in exchange for oxygen. |
| What connects arteries to veins and allows nutrients, oxygen and waste to pass in and out of the blood. | Capillaries |
| This system includes the heart, blood and blood vessels including arteries, veins and capillaries. | Cardiovascular System |
| Carbon Dioxide | A colorless, odorless gas, CO2, formed during respiration. |
| Blood | Known as the fluid of life |
| What does blood carry to the cells? | Oxygen, Nutrients and Hormones |
| What does blood carry away from the cells? | Carbon Dioxide |
| Blood Vessels | A network of more than 60,000 miles of arteries, veins and capillaries that transport blood throughout the body. |
| Circulatory System | A organ system that passes nutrients,gases, hormones, blood cells to and from cells in the body to help fight diseases and to stabilize body temperature. |
| Heart | A muscle that constantly and rhythmatically contracts and relaxes. It is about the size of a fist. It circulates blood throughout the entire body. |
| Left Atrium | Receives oxygenated bolld from the lungs and pumps it into the left ventricle. |
| Left Ventricle | Pumps oxygenated blood out of the heart to the rest of the body. |
| Lungs | Principle organs of the Respiratory System and the site where breathing takes place. |
| Muscular System | A complicated system of 650 muscles that coordinates and produces movement by shortening and lengthening muscles. |
| Oxygen | Fuels the brain and allows your body to metabolize food for energy to move muscles. |
| Oxygen | This is carried throughout the body in the hemoglobin of the red blood cells. |
| Plasma | The liquid part of the blood that is mostly water and contains nutrients, proteins, salts and hormones. |
| Platelets | Blood cells that help stop bleeding. |
| Red Blood Cells | What transports oxygen to the cells of the body and carbon dioxide to the lungs and is made in bone marrow? |
| Right Atrium | Receives deoxygenated blood from various parts of the body and pumps it into the right ventricle. |
| Right Ventricle | Pumps the deoxygenated blood into the lungs. |
| White Blood Cells | The main role of this is to protect the body against infection by attacking and destroying germs when they enter the body. |
| White Blood Cells | What is produced in bone marrow and is part of the immune system. |
| What type of exercise is used for long steady runs such as the mile run? | Aerobic Exercise |
| What type of exercise is used for short burstof power and speed? | Anaerobic Exercise |
