Impurities in the blood are discharged in the lungs as carbon dioxide. As we inhale oxygen is taken into the lungs and is picked up by the red corpuscles in the blood. The purified blood passes through the pulmonary veins, two from each lung and into the left atrium of the heart. It is then forced through a valve into the left ventricle, where it is then pumped through the aorta (Large artery) into a network of smaller arteries. All arteries branch off into a number of smaller arteries, the smallest of these arteries is called arterioles. They become smaller and smaller until they become capillaries, and give off enriched blood to the tissues through their porous thin walls, and carried into very tiny veins called venules. They then enter the larger veins and finally into the heart and completing one full cycle ready to start again as this is a repetitive function.
