Systematic circulation is the circulation of blood from the heart, to the body and then back to the heart again, while pulmonary circulation is the circulation of blood from the heart, to the lungs and then back to the heart.

∙ 13y agoPulmonary circulation is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries oxygen-depleted (deoxygenated) blood away from the heart, to the lungs, where it is re-oxygenated and returns the oxygen rich blood back to the heart to be pumped through-out the whole body via systemic circulation.
Systemic circulation is the part of the cardiovascular system which carries oxygen rich blood from the heart to the body, and returns deoxygenated (oxygen poor) blood back to the heart to be returned to the lungs and re-oxygenated via pulmonary circulation.
Two systems that work in harmony (making up part the cardiovascular system) to constantly replenish much needed oxygen throughout the body.

What is the difference between pulmonary circulation coronary circulation and systematic circulation?
the circulation is divided into 2 circulations 1st is pulmonary circulation in which what happens is that when the pulmonary artery caring impure blood to the lungs for purification and the pure blood (oxygenated) in brought back from lungs to heart through pumonary vien, this is pulmonary circulation 2nd systematic circulation in this what happens is that the pure blood from the left ventricle is forced to all other part of the body through aorta to all the cells and tissues, after the diffusion in which stuffs are interchanged( carbon dioxide and glucose and oxygen) it is brought back to the heart through inferior or superior vena cava, this is systemic circulation Finally, the coronary circulation is the circulation of blood that feeds the heart itself, since it does not receive any oxygen from the systemic or pulmonary circulations.
What are the three major circuits of blood flow?
Pulmonary circulation (between the heart and lungs) Systematic circulation (between the heart and the rest of the body) Coronary circulation (the heart's own blood supply/supply to cardiac tissue)
What are systemic and pulmonary circulation?
pulmonary circulation the flow of blood from the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen, and back through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium.
Within the pulmonary circulation the?
pulmonary arteries carry oxygen-poor blood
What is the difference between pulmonary circulation in systemic circulation?
The heart is two side-by-side pumps, each serving a separate blood circuit: - The blood vessels that carry blood to and from the lungs form the pulmonary circuit, which serves gas exchange. - The blood vessels that carry the functional blood supply to and from all body tissues constitute the systematic circuit. Pulmonary circuit - the right side of the heart is the pulmonary circuit pump. Blood returning from the body is relatively oxygen-poor and carbon dioxide-rich. It enters the right atrium and passes into the right ventricle, which pumps it to the lungs via the pulmonary trunk. In the lungs, the blood unloads carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen. The fresh oxygenated blood is carried by the pulmonary veins back to the left side of the heart (left atrium). NOTICE how unique this circulation is. Typically, we think of veins as vessels that carry blood that is relatively oxygen-poor to the heart and arteries as transporters of oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Exactly the opposite condition exists in the pulmonary circuit. Systematic circuit - the left side of the heart is the systematic circuit pump. Freshly oxygenated blood leaving the lungs is returned to the left atrium and passes into the left ventricle which pumps it into the aorta. From there the blood is transported via smaller systemic arteries to the body tissues, where gases and nutrients are exchanged across the capillary walls. Then the blood once again loaded with carbon dioxide and depleted of oxygen, returns through the systemic veins to the right side of the heart, where it enters the right atrium through the superior and inferior venae cavae.

How are pulmonary circulation and systematic circulation the same?
it is wako wakosvturn
What are the two types of circulation of blood in the body?
Pulmonary and systemic
What are the two divisions of circulatory system?
The pulmonary and the systematic circulation.
What is the flow of blood to the tissues of the heart?
coronary circulation
What is double circulation?
the circulation from a lungs to the heart is called pulmonary circulation And the circulation from lungs to the body is called systematic circulation This two circulations is called double circulation
What are the functions of systematic coronary and pulmonary circulation?
Coronary circulation is the circulation in veins and arteries that lead to your heart and give it nutrients. Pulmonary circulation is when the heart pumps oxygen poor blood into the lungs to be filled with nutrients from oxygen. Systematic circulation is the heart pumping oxygen rich blood from the lungs and to the rest of the body, then back to the heart to repeat the process.
What are the different kind of blood circulation?
Pulmonary circulation - between the heart and the lungs Systematic circulation - between the heart and the rest of the body Coronary circulation - the heart itself
What are the different kinds of circulations?
Pulmonary circulation - between the heart and the lungs Systematic circulation - between the heart and the rest of the body Coronary circulation - the heart itself
What are the three kinds of blood circulation?
Pulmonary circulation = between the heart and the lungs Coronary circulation = the heart tissue's own blood supply Systematic circulation = between the heart and the rest of the body
What is another name for the circulation of blood from lungs to heart to body?
Pulmonary circulation Pulmonary circulation pulmonary circulation pulmonary circulation

What are the two main circulatory routes in the body?
You have lesser circulation or the pulmonary circulation. Blood goes to lungs in this system from the right side of heart. You have greater circulation or the systemic circulation. Blood goes to all over the rest of body through this circulation. The amount of blood that flows is same in both the systems. You have about 25/15 mm of Hg pressure in pulmonary circulation. You have about 120/80 mm of Hg pressure in systemic circulation.
