Check understanding
- Labels a diagram of the heart showing atria, ventricles, valves, aorta, vena cava, and pulmonary vessels
- Traces the route of blood through the double circulatory system
- Explains the role of valves in preventing backflow
- Compares arteries, veins, and capillaries
“If your child felt their heartbeat, could they describe what the heart is doing — explaining the two sides of the heart, where the blood goes from each side, and why we need a double loop?”
