Ok I am new to this so here goes nothing.
I am in the circulatory system and came across the section that says
ii. Blood Vessels- the cellular and gross anatomy of arteries,aterioles, veins, venules,capillaries, and the name of major vessels in the body.
What's that supposed to mean?

by the way, this is one of my favorite events!!

Go to
google.com and search for "
define: gross anatomy". Almost any of the definitions returned should explain it.

in the rules, one of the bolded section is HOW TO LABEL the path of blood, does this mean they'll show you a diagram and you have to draw the path?
