Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

____ takes place when blood travels from the heart, through the lungs, and back to the heart.

A	pulmonary circulation
B	systemic circulation
C	Either A or B
D	None of the above

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Pulmonary circulation moves blood between the heart and the lungs. It transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs to absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide. The oxygenated blood then flows back to the heart. Systemic circulation moves blood between the heart and the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Blood is pumped from veins of the systemic circuit into the right atrium of the heart, then into the right ventricle. Blood then enters the pulmonary circuit, and is oxygenated by the lungs. From the pulmonary circuit, blood re-enters the heart through the left atrium.
