| Osmosis | Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
🗑
|
||||
| Diffusion | Movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| vascular tissue | specialized tissue in plants that carries water and nutrients
🗑
|
||||
| tricuspid valve | valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle
🗑
|
||||
| Valves | Flaps of tissue that open and close to allow the flow of blood in one direction
🗑
|
||||
| capillary | A tiny blood vessel where substances are exchanged between the blood and the body cells
🗑
|
||||
| lymphatic system | Composed of a network of vessels, ducts, nodes, and organs. Provides defence against infection
🗑
|
||||
| red blood cells | Blood cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to the body cells
🗑
|

| white blood cells | fight infection
🗑
|
||||
| Platelets | cell fragments that cause clotting and produce growth factors involved in tissue repair
🗑
|
||||
| Hemoglobin | a protein containing iron, found in red blood cells, which carries oxygen
🗑
|
||||
| bone marrow | a soft tissue inside the bone that produces blood cells
🗑
|
||||
| heart rate | A measure of cardiac activity usually expressed as the number of beats per minute.
🗑
|
||||
| open circulatory system | A circulatory system that allows the blood to flow out of the blood vessels and into various body cavities so that the cells are in direct contact with the blood
🗑
|
||||
| closed circulatory system | system in which blood is contained within a network of blood vessels
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
