the circulation of blood through the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the general system, from the left ventricle to the right atrium
It's all the blood flow EXCEPT the pulmonary circulation (that is: the right side of the heart and the lungs). Its function is to supply blood to all the tissues of the body.
Pulmonary and systemic
coronary circulation
The systemic circulation includes three parts. The coronary circulation, the hepaticportal circulation and the renal circulation
The pulmonary circulation (from heart to lungs and back) is shorter than the systemic circulation (from heart to body tissues and back).
The arteries of the pulmonary circulation differ from those of the systemic circulation in that they carry?
Coronary circulation is a sub-set of systemic circulation, it just supplies the heart. Pulmonary circulation is mecanically the same as systemic, but the blood enters as deoxigenated, and the pressures are much lower.
The blood circulation in the Lungs, called the pulmonary circulation, is COMPLETELY a part of the general, systemic circulation of Blood.
systemic circulation - BETWEEN the heart and lungs
the systemic and pulmonary circulation
No, the bicuspid valve, also known as the mitral valve, is not part of systemic circulation itself, but it plays a crucial role in the systemic circulation pathway. It is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart, allowing blood to flow from the atrium to the ventricle before being pumped into the aorta and distributed throughout the body. Its proper function is essential for effective systemic circulation.
Pulmonary - carries oxygen-depleted blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart. Systemic - carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart.
