In mammals the circulating system is seen as 2 circles. Blood is pumped from the heart to the rest of the body by way of arteries which get smaller and smaller until they reach capillary beds.

Then off the capillary bed small veins become larger and larger veins and finally lead to the heart.

From there the blood is pumped to the lungs by arteries and back to the heart by veins where it all starts over again.
