Function (Student)
1 pts

Expert

The system does not leak. The heart "pumps" when squeezed, moving blood out of the bottle. Blood travels through arteries as it leaves the heart. Blood returns through veins to the heart. Cells are visible and move with the blood.
Practitioner

The system leaks, but is still able to function. The heart "pumps" when squeezed, moving blood out of the bottle. Blood travels through arteries as it leaves the heart. Blood returns through veins to the heart. Cells are visible and move with the blood.
Apprentice

The system leaks, but is still able to function most of the time. The heart "pumps" when squeezed, moving blood out of the bottle. Blood travels through the veins and arteries, but does not always flow in the correct direction. Cells are visible and some move with the blood.
Novice

The system leaks, but is still able to function some of the time. The heart "pumps" when squeezed, moving blood out of the bottle. Blood travels through the veins and arteries, but does not flow in a direction. Cells are visible, but most do not move with the blood.
Incomplete

The system leaks and is unable to function. The heart "pumps" when squeezed, but blood does not move out of the bottle. Blood is visible in the blood vessels , but does not flow in a direction. Cells are visible, but most do not move.
