Detailed explanation-1: -Systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle, through the arteries, to the capillaries in the tissues of the body. From the tissue capillaries, the deoxygenated blood returns through a system of veins to the right atrium of the heart.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the systemic loop, oxygenated blood is pumped from the left ventricle of the heart through the aorta, the largest artery in the body. The blood moves from the aorta through the systemic arteries, then to arterioles and capillary beds that supply body tissues.
Detailed explanation-3: -The systemic circuit carries oxygenated blood away from your heart, takes it to the rest of your body where its oxygen is delivered, and returns deoxygenated blood to your heart.
Detailed explanation-4: -The pulmonary circuit: This circuit carries blood without oxygen from the heart to the lungs. The pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood to the heart. The systemic circuit: In this circuit, blood with oxygen, nutrients and hormones travels from the heart to the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-5: -The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from systemic circulation and the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from pulmonary circulation.
