What blood vessel type conveys blood from the systemic circulation back to the heart?
Veins are the blood vessel type that conveys blood from the systemic circulation back to the heart. They carry deoxygenated blood, except for the pulmonary veins, which transport oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. Veins have thinner walls and larger lumens than arteries, allowing them to accommodate varying volumes of blood. Valves within veins help prevent the backflow of blood as it moves toward the heart.

What is the first blood vessel of systemic circulation?
The aorta.
What blood vessel is not part of the systemic circulation?
The Vein does not bring blood to the Heart.
What is the structural difference between pulmonary vessel walls and systemic vessel walls?
The role of the pulmonary circulation is to take blood that is poor in oxygen and load it up with oxygen. It also takes the carbon dioxide content of blood and gets rid of it, that is you exhale it. One role of the systemic cirulation to deliver oxygen rich blood to where it is needed. That is to say that cells need oxygen to do their work, the brain to think and the muscles to contract. They get their oxygen from the systemic circulation. But blood in the systemic circulation got its oxygen from being in the pulmonary circulation.
What blood vessel regulates systemic resistance?
which blood vessel regulates systemic resistance?
Which blood vessel carries oxygenated blood to the entire body?
yes except for the pulmonary artery which distributes unoxygenated blood to the lungs
Which blood vessel is not part of the systemic circulation?
Pulmonary veins and artery together with their associated capillaries
Is the pulmonary artery a part of systemic circulation?
The blood circulation in the Lungs, called the pulmonary circulation, is COMPLETELY a part of the general, systemic circulation of Blood.
What vessels carry blood to lungs.?
The pulmonary artery is the primary vessel that carries blood to the lungs. Unlike the systemic circulation, the pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood.
What is the flow of blood to the tissues of the heart?
coronary circulation
What is the purpose of systemic circulation?
The purpose of systemic circulation is to carry blood from the heart to the body. It then returns the blood back to the heart.
What are the two types of circulation of blood in the body?
Pulmonary and systemic
What are the two types of circulation in the body?
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.
