Cardiovascular

artery : any of the muscular-walled tubes forming part of the circulation system by which blood (mainly that which has been oxygenated) is conveyed from the heart to all parts of the body.
pulse : a rhythmical throbbing of the arteries as blood is propelled through them.
cardiac cycle : a complete heartbeat from its generation to the beginning of the next beat, and so includes the diastole, the systole, and the intervening pause.
septum : a partition separating two chambers.
bicuspid valve : another name for the mitral valve
mitral valve : A fold in between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart that directs blood that has received oxygen.
viscosity : The degree to which a fluid resists flow under an applied force.
pacemaker : a group of cells rhythmically initiating the heartbeat
pulmonary valve : The heart valve which is positioned between the right ventricle and the opening into the pulmonary artery.
vein : a vessel in which blood flows toward the heart
diffusion : the process in which particles in a fluid move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
arteriole : The smallest type of artery
capillary : one of the minute vessels connecting the arterioles and venules
pericardium : the thin, sac-like membrane that surrounds the heart
cardiac output : the volume of blood forced out by the ventricles of the heart per beat multiplied by the heart rate
systolic pressure : the highest reading in the arterial blood pressure cycle
diastolic pressure : the lowest pressure recorded in the arterial blood pressure cycle
interstitial fluid : The fluid between cells in tissues
aortic valve : a valve in the heart between the left ventricle and the aorta.
myocardium : The thick middle layer of the heart
