Copy & Complete The Heart (right side) • Deoxygenated blood is passed through the right side of the heart (blue). It comes from the body • The deoxygenated blood goes back to the lungs via the pulmonary vein. • The blood picks up more oxygen and the cycle starts again

Heart disease • Angina Pectoris - Pain or discomfort due to lack of oxygen to the heart muscle. May manifest as pain or discomfort, heaviness, tightness, pressure or burning, numbness aching, tingling in the chest, back, neck, throat, jaw or arms. • Heart Attack - Acute myocardial infarction, occurs when a coronary artery is completely blocked or almost completely blocked. Blood and nutrients are not able to reach the part of the heart muscle below the blockage.
Coronary Thrombosis • The main cause ofthis type of problem is a build up of fatty deposits in the arteries. • These deposits are caused by eating too many saturated fats, often found in junk foods. • They cause blockages and prevent the flow of nutrients.
