- Blood returns to the heart from the body through a big blood vessel called _____.
Vena Cava
Notes - CLF - Exterior Heart
- Substances are exchanged between the blood and body cells in the blood vessels known as ______.
Capillaries
Notes - WKST - The Body’s Transport System
- Starting with the Vena Cavas, put the numbers in order show the pathway of the blood. First write the number, then the name of the part, next to the part put oxygenated or deoxygenated. If two different numbers have blood flowing at the same time put them both on the same line. Put one answer per line. The numbers shouldn’t be in numerical order so don’t let that bother you.
