Oxygen deprived blood from the vena cava enters the right atrium of the heart and flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle where it is pumped through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary arteries which go to the lungs. Pulmonary veins return the now oxygen-rich blood to the heart, where it enters the left atrium before flowing through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. Also, from the left ventricle the oxygen-rich blood is pumped out via the aorta, and on to the rest of the body.
The circulatory system distributes oxygen to body tissues as it works with the respiratory system. It also helps bring carbon dioxide back to the lungs so that it can be expelled.
Distribute oxygen to body, clean blood, and return to be oxygenated.

The function of the circulatory system is to distribute blood throughout the body. Through the circulatory system, the blood delivers oxygen, nutrients, antibodies, and heat to all areas of the body.
The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to get oxygen to cells. Oxygen transfers from the respiratory to the circulatory system at the capillaries surrounding the alveoli.
The circulatory system.
The respiratory system, which is made up of the heart, lungs and blood vessels.
The circulatory system is dependent on the lungs. The lungs bring oxygen into the body, and the circulatory system transports that oxygen to body tissues.
The Respiratory System.
The purpose of a circulatory system is to distribute nutrients and oxygen to every cell in the body. As hydras lack a circulatory system such distribution must be accomplished by diffusion along, which is a very slow process and inadequate for anything of any size. So the body form of a hydra is limited in size due to a lack of a circulatory system.
The real function and purpose of the Circulatory system is to keep us alive (of course working in conjunction with the other systems of the body). The Circulatory system carries food and oxygen to all the cells of the body and then in response to that removes all waste products.
