To oxygenate the blood
A+
The systemic veins and heart transfer waste-filled blood from the tissues into the pulmonary circulattion. The sytsemic veins bring waste-filled blood to the right atrium, which pumps it into the right ventricle, which pumps it into the pulmonary circulation.
coronary circulation
Systemic circulation
The large artery connected to the heart, called the Aorta.
With a double circulatory system, the heart can increase the pressure of the blood after the blood has picked up oxygen from the lungs. This means it can transport oxygen to the body tissues much quicker.
Capillaries
Capillaries
The pulmonary circulation system does not serve the metabolic needs of the body tissues directly, but only the lungs.

Systemic circulation is the flow of blood from the heart to all parts of the body and back to the heart, while pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood between the heart and the lungs. Systemic circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues, while pulmonary circulation is responsible for oxygenating the blood and removing carbon dioxide.
The Capillaries transfers waste filled blood from the tissues into the Pulmonary circulation.capillariesTiny blood vessels that pass food and oxygen to cells and receive waste from cells.
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.
The pulmonary circulation (from heart to lungs and back) is shorter than the systemic circulation (from heart to body tissues and back).
