Each of the two upper chambers in the heart that receives blood that comes into the heart.

Each of the two lower chambers in the heart are ventricles. They pump blood out of the heart.

A valve is a flap of tissue that prevents blood from flowing backwards.

A group of cells that is located in the right atrium, which sends out signals that make the heart muscle contract

Large blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart.

From the arteries blood flows into tiny vessels called capillaries. In the capillaries, substances are exchanged between the blood and body cells

From the capillaries, blood flows into the veins. Veins are vessels that carry blood back to the heart

From the left ventricle the blood is pumped into the aorta, the largest artery in the body.

When the ventricle muscles contract, they exert a force on the that is inside them.

The force exerted by blood on the inside walls of a blood vessel is called blood pressure. It is written in two numbers. The first number is called the systolic (contracted). The second number is called the diastolic (relaxed).
