Clues

  • Blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart picking up oxygen (9, 11)
  • Chemical combination of haemoglobin with oxygen (14)
  • Increasing flow of blood into capillaries (12)
  • main means by which carbon dioxide is transported by the blood (8, 9)
  • Mechanisms involved to assist the return of blood to the heart (6, 6)
  • Pressure of the heart contracting (8, 8)
  • Pressure of the relaxed heart (9, 8)
  • Red pigment that transports oxygen in the blood (11)
  • reducing flow of blood into capillaries by action of sympathetic nerve (16)
  • Tiny blood vessels supplied nutrients to cells and removing waste materials (11)
