I'll start with deoxygenated blood. vena cava-->right atrium-->right ventricle-->pulmonary artery-->capillary beds in lungs for co2/o2 exchange (blood is now oxygenated) -->pulmonary vein-->left atrium-->left ventricle-->aorta-->capillary beds of organs (blood now is again deoxygenated and returns to vena cava.

The vasculature becomes increasingly smaller as blood reaches the capillarries, then increasingly larger as it leaves the capillaries.

Away from heart--aorta, arteries, arterioles

Towards heart--vena cava, veins, venules

What is the systemic circulation from pulmonary circulation?

Systemic circulation is the part of the cardiovascular system that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body and returns oxygen-depleted blood back to the heart. Pulmonary circulation, on the other hand, is the circulation of blood between the heart and lungs, where blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Systemic circulation follows pulmonary circulation in the blood flow cycle.


What are systemic and pulmonary circulation?

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.


How does systemic circulation work?

In systemic circulation, oxygenated blood is pumped from the heart to all parts of the body through the arteries. The blood delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and picks up waste products. Deoxygenated blood returns to the heart through the veins to be pumped to the lungs for oxygenation.


What is systemic circulation?

is a way blood travels al the body. body travels the body by circulation, but by different types like pulmonary circulation... and one form is systemic circulation. for more information look in other pages


Does the right ventricle move blood around the systemic system?

No, the right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery for oxygenation. After passing through the lungs, the oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium via the pulmonary veins to be pumped out to the systemic circulation by the left ventricle.

The circuit that the blood follows from the heart to the body's tissues and back is called circulation?

The circuit that the blood follows from the heart to the body's tissues and back is called systemic circulation. It involves the flow of oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body's tissues through arteries and the return of oxygen-poor blood back to the heart via veins.

Describe the path blood follows through the systematic circulation loop?

In the systemic circulation, blood leave the left atrium, passes through the bicuspid valve, and enters the left ventricle. From there it is pumped to the aorta and to progressively smaller arteries. Materials diffuse at the capillaries, and blood returns to the heart via progressively larger veins to the vena cava. When the vena cava carries blood to the right atrium, the blood is entering the pulmonary circulation loop.


Do kidneys receive blood through the renal vein?

Kidneys receive blood from systemic circulation via the RENAL ARTERIES, the blood flows through them and re-enters systemic circulation via the RENAL VEINS
