Students, this is teacher Liel Gem.
I am very sorry for the late reply I did. I'm just bus for the pass few days.
Jannine, I am very happy that you replied to the activities. It is also a good thing that you have placed an additional information by stating the components of the cardiovascular system. However, it did not fulfill the activity requirement. Try to check in the lesson plan that I have posted about the activity requirements that you need to pass.
Thank you.

A MESSAGE FOR STUDENT JUDITH CAROPE
Thank you very much for being such a diligent student in this online class. However, I wanted to ask for an apology for not being present for the past few days. I also didn't inform you ahead of time. I've been that busy in other important things.
Well, I have read the analogy that you have submitte. You are pointing to a single comparison. You said that the heart and the mechanical pump both have same functions, it pumps.
I want you to consider other aspects of a mechanical pump.
Try to see the comparisons of the following things:
blood vessels of the heart versus the hoses of a mechanical pump
what liquid do they pump? are both the same?
thoracic cage of the heart versus the cage of the mechanical pump (other mechanical pumps have cages while others do not have)
the malfunctioning of both
Hope you will take heed of this. Thank you

I have read your activity requirement number 2.
You got 7 out of eight parts. Kindly check you answer. The word must spell as SITAVAVA. Let me feed back your answer.
S- Superior Vena Cava
I- Inferior Vena Cava
T- Pulmonary Trunk
A- Right and Left Atrium
V- Right and Left Ventricle
A-
V- Pulmonary Vein
A- Aorta
You miss the A of the SITAVAVA. kindly check your answer again.

Congratulations!
You have sequenced the parts being involved in the oxygenation process of the blood.
There are few additional questions that I will ask you so that you will have additional knowledge.
The blood enters either in the Superior Vena Cava or in the Inferior Vena Cava. How will you know that the blood will enter in the superior vena cava? And how will you know if the blood will enter in the Inferior Vena Cava?
This will help you. Thank You.

Thank you for posting your answer to Activity Requirement 1.
I could sense that you haven't understood what a mechanical pump is. Try to visit the following websites to see what a mechanical pump is.
The following below are websites where you can view photos of a mechanical pump.

What is the liquid that you refer to that is needed by the mechanical pump to complete its cycle?
Kindly work again on your activity number 1
Compare and Contrast the heart and the mechanical pump using the following basis:
a. their functions
b. blood vessels of the heart versus the hoses of the mechanical pump
c. liquid that they pump
d. thoracic cage of the heart versus the cage of a mechanical pump (if there is any)
e. its malfunctioning
Hope you will work again in this. Kindly pass this activity as soon as you can.

Congratulations Jannine Eliseo!
The answer to your activity requirement 1 is all correct! You did an excellent job!
Kindly take note that there are right and left parts of the atrium as well as the vetricle.
What other parts of the heart do you know? Can you name them?
Thank you!!!!

The heart consists of the following parts:
Aorta: It is the largest artery and carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body.
Superior Vena Cava: Deoxygenated blood from the upper parts of the body returns to the heart through the superior vena cava.
Inferior Vena Cava: Deoxygenated blood from the lower parts of the body returns to the heart through the inferior vena cava.
Pulmonary Veins: They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart.
Pulmonary Arteries: They carry blood from the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen.
Right Atrium: It collects deoxygenated blood returning from the body (through the vena cavas) and then forces it into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve.
Right Ventricle: It collects deoxygenated blood from the right atrium and then forces it into the lungs through the pulmonary valve.
Left Atrium: It collects oxygenated blood returning from the lungs and then forces it into the left ventricle through the mitral valve.
Left Ventricle: It is the largest and the strongest chamber in the heart. It pushes blood through the aortic valve and into the body.
The right side of the heart collects de-oxygenated blood from the body into the right atrium and then via the right ventricle pumps it into the lungs so that carbon dioxide can be dropped off and oxygen picked up.
The left side of the heart collects oxygenated blood from the lungs into the left atrium. From the left atrium the blood moves to the left ventricle which pumps it out to supply oxygen to the body.
endocarditis-a disease in heart valves cause by some germs
atherosclerosis- a disease in arteries caused by cholesterol and other fats, calcium, and scar tissue.
(other heart diseases)

Thank you for sharing some information about the different parts of the heart I am looking forward for the internalization of those.
Where will the heart receive oxygenated blood? Once the blood will go out the heart through the pulmonary arteries, where will it go to pick up oxygen?
