What is the systemic circulation from pulmonary circulation?

Systemic circulation is the part of the cardiovascular system that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body and returns oxygen-depleted blood back to the heart. Pulmonary circulation, on the other hand, is the circulation of blood between the heart and lungs, where blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Systemic circulation follows pulmonary circulation in the blood flow cycle.
