Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: Anemia, Varicose Veins, and Heart Defects
Level#1: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body and the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen and the valves do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. What problems does a person have when they have varicose veins?
3. What is the result of a person having anemia?
Level#2: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the correct amount of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen and the valves do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. Why do the veins become swollen if a person has varicose veins?
3. What happens when a person has low levels of red blood cells?
Level#3: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the appropriate number of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen. This happens because the valves that move blood to the heart do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is an abnormality of the heart's structure or function. Heart defects are disorders that people are born with. Approximately 30,000 to 40,000 (or 1 in 1,000) children are born each year with a heart defect. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Approximately how many children are born each year with heart defects?
2. How can some types of heart defects be corrected?
3. Explain what makes varicose veins swollen.

1. In what foods can cholesterol be found?
2. What is cholesterol and is it important?
3. What can become narrow when cholesterol builds up on their walls?
Level#2: Blood vessels can become narrow when cholesterol builds up on their walls. Cholesterol is a fat-like substance that plays an important part in the body. It can be found in foods such as butter, eggs, liver, cheese, and beef. Cholesterol helps build cells membranes and sex hormones. It also helps your to digest your food. But, too much cholesterol can build up on artery walls, blocking blood flow. This blockage can result in high blood pressure.

High blood pressure, also called hypertension is a sign that the blood vessels or heart are not working properly. High blood pressure may be caused by a variety and combination of factors including; diet, age, weight, and whether a person smokes tobacco. It can also be inherited from a previous generation. People with kidney disease and diabetes are more likely to develop hypertension.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: Blood Types & RH Factor.
Level#1: There are four main blood types: A, B, AB, O. Different blood types are based on whether certain substances are present on the red blood cells. People who receive blood from a donor must get the right blood. The blood they get must match the blood type they are.
1. What needs to happen when a person receives blood from a blood donor?
2. How are the different blood types determined?
3. What are the four main blood types?
Level#2: There are four main blood types: A, B, AB, O. Different blood types are based on whether certain substances are present on the red blood cells. People who receive blood from a donor must get the right blood. The blood they get must match the blood type they are. There are other differences among blood cells besides blood types. Sometimes there is a substance on the surface of the a blood cell called Rh factor. Most people in the United States are called Rh positive. They have the Rh substance on their blood cells. People that do not have the substance on their blood cells are called Rh negative.
1. What are the other differences found on blood cells besides blood type?
2. Regarding Rh factor, what are most people in the United States and what determines this?
3. What do you call the people that do not have the Rh substance on their blood cells?

People that do not have the substance on their blood cells are called Rh negative. It is very important that a person getting a blood transfusion receives blood matching with their Rh. It is also important for a pregnant mother to know whether she is Rh positive or Rh negative. A difference between her blood and the unborn baby's can cause problems during delivery.
1. Explain the other differences among blood cells besides blood type, what most Americans are, and what determines this.
2. Explain what a person who does not have the Rh substance on their blood cells is and in what situation would it be important to match their Rh.

Level#1: Veins are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that connect arteries to veins.
1. What are the tiny blood vessels called that connect arteries to veins?
2. What is the job of the arteries?
3. In what direction do the veins carry blood?
Level#2: Veins are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that connect arteries to veins. Oxygen and nutrient molecules pass through the capillary membranes into body cells. At the same time, waste molecules from the body cells pass into the blood. These wastes are carried through veins back to the heart and into the lungs. You exhale some of the wastes into the air.
1. Where do waste molecules from body cells go?
2. Which blood vessels carry wastes back to the heart and into the lungs?
3. Where do the wastes that you exhale go?
Level#3: Veins are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that connect arteries to veins. Oxygen and nutrient molecules pass through the capillary membranes into body cells. At the same time, waste molecules from the body cells pass into the blood. These wastes are carried through veins back to the heart and into the lungs. You exhale some of the wastes into the air. Blood transports nutrients, oxygen, and wastes, and fights infection. About 55 percent of blood is a liquid called plasma. This liquid carries nutrients and wastes throughout the circulatory system.
1. Explain the job the blood does for the body.
2. Explain what plasma is and what percent of the blood it makes up.
3. What job does plasma do?

These wastes are carried through veins back to the heart into the lungs. Your exhale some of the wastes into the air.
1. What do the veins and arteries do with the blood?
2. What job do capillaries do as part of our circulatory system?
3. What two types of molecules pass through the capillary membranes and where do they go?

1. Explain the function of; veins, arteries, and capillaries.
2. Explain what goes on in the capillaries.
3. Where do the wastes in the blood go and how are they gotten rid of?
