Pulmonary circulation is the movement of nutrient and gasses from the lungs to the other parts of the body and back to the lungs. We all know that nutrient, waste, oxygen, carbon dioxide etc is circulated through the blood stream.. Each organ has its veins capillaries and arteries that help in the process. The lung, the organ for respiration, main responsibility is to carry the oxygen to the cells in the body and take carbon dioxide from the body to be disposed. The entire cycle is what is term as the pulmonary circulation.
