The cardiac cycle is the sequence of alternating contractions and relaxations of the human heart from the beginning of one heartbeat to the beginning of the next.
This activity is in the form of a drag-and-drop puzzle. The puzzle can be completed in steps by considering one part of the heart at a time, or by considering one phase of the cardiac cycle at a time. It can also be done all at once (without guidance) as a more challenging activity. Completing all three activities in order will give better practice and help students learn the material effectively.
