Young scientists get to the heart of the matter with this comprehensive review of the circulatory system. Addressing the different anatomical structures and processes involved in pumping blood through the human body, this worksheet...

In this blood pressure worksheet, learners compare their heart rate at rest and after exercise and their blood pressure at rest and after exercise. This worksheet has 6 fill in the blank and 12 short answer questions.

In this body systems worksheet, students will complete a Venn diagram comparing and contrasting arteries and veins as they relate to the circulatory and respiratory systems.

In this life science worksheet, students complete a crossword puzzle using 8 clues. They are given a word bank of terms related to the human body systems, and the topic of inheritance.

In this anatomy worksheet, students identify auscultation and palpation through a lab exercise. They identify various features on the face, neck and cranium and describe their significance. Students also identify points for injection,...

Students participate in active demonstrations to explore the understanding of cholesterol in an artery. Students stand outside hula hoops to represent an artery. When they are tagged, they become a piece of cholesterol. Students...

Students review circulation and blood flow patterns from different parts of the body. They play a game using colored yarn and index cards to simulate blood flow, oxygenated blood, arteries and veins.

Pupils develop a model to visually observe the change in blood flow rates between healthy and unhealthy arteries. They calculate data that they have collected and graph their results. They determine the relationships the flow of blood...

In this blood vessel worksheet, students compare microscope slides of arteries, veins, and capillaries. This worksheet has 43 fill in the blank questions.
