The
right ventricle
pumps blood to the
lungs
The
left
ventricle
pumps blood to the
body
Heart
rate
is controlled by cells located in the
right atrium
which is a
pacemaker
Artificial pacemakers
are electrical devices used to correct
irregularities
in heart rate
Blood
is a
tissue
made of different cells which can be made viable using
stains
Blood type is determined by
antigens
which are
proteins
on the surface on the
blood
cell
Agglutination
is when blood cells
clump
Coronary heart disease
develops when a
coronary
artery
is blocked by a
plaque
The blockage reduces blood flow to the heart and prevents
oxygen
and
glucose
being delivered to respiring heart cells
Health
is the state of
physical
and mental well being
Malignant
tumour cells are
cancers
Benign tumours
are growths of
abnormal
cells
