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. What are the signs that a person may have anemia?
2. What are the signs that a person may have varicose veins?
3. What is a heart defect?
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. What is anemia and how does it affect the body?
2. What are varicose veins and why does it happen?
3. What is a heart defect?
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. Explain what anemia is and how it can cause problems in the body.
2. Explain what varicose veins are and why they happen.
3. Explain what a heart defect is and what can sometimes be done to fix them.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: Heart Attacks and Strokes
Level#1:
A heart attack usually begins as a pain in the chest. The pain spreads through the arms, throat, and back. The victim starts to sweat and has trouble breathing. Heart attacks are often caused by blocked blood vessels called coronary arteries. A stroke can happen when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. After a stroke, some people have brain damage. This can affect the way they talk and move. it can also affect their memory.
1. What can cause a stroke to happen?
2. What can happen to a person's brain after they have a stroke?
3. What can a stroke do to a person's body and mind?
Level#2:
A heart attack usually begins as a pain in the chest. The pain spreads through the arms, throat, and back. The victim starts to sweat and has trouble breathing. Heart attacks are often caused by blocked blood vessels called coronary arteries. When blood does not get to the heart, the heart shuts down. The heart is a muscle and is made up of living cells.
A stroke can happen when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. The brain is made of living cells, just like the heart. If some of the brain cells do not get the oxygen and nutrients they need, they can stop working. After a stroke, some people have brain damage. This can affect the way they talk and move. it can also affect their memory.
1. What can cause a stroke to happen?
2. What can happen to brain cells if they do not get the oxygen and nutrients they need?
3. What can happen to a person after a stroke and what can be affected?
Level#3:
A heart attack usually begins as a pain in the chest. The pain spreads through the arms, throat, and back. The victim starts to sweat and has trouble breathing. Heart attacks are often caused by blocked blood vessels called coronary arteries. When blood does not get to the heart, the heart shuts down. The heart is a muscle and is made up of living cells. It needs a supply of nutrients and oxygen to function. When that supply is cut off, the heart cannot keep working. A stroke can happen when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. The brain is made of living cells, just like the heart. If some of the brain cells do not get the oxygen and nutrients they need, they can stop working. After a stroke, some people have brain damage. This can affect the way they talk and move. it can also affect their memory.
1. Explain what causes a stroke and the result of this cause.
2. Explain what can occur after a person has a stroke and the affects a stroke can have on a person's body and mind.

1. In what foods can cholesterol be found?
2. What is cholesterol and is it important?

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.

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.
