Pulmonary circulation is the system through which blood is oxygenated. Deoxygenated blood is sent from the heart to the lungs where it gathers oxygen, leaves carbon dioxide behind, and is sent back to the heart to be distributed to the rest of the body. Pulmonary circulation is a part of the larger circulatory system. Basically, the circulatory system is the transport system of the body. Blood travels through a vast system of blood vessels, carrying everything from nutrients to hormones to water before cycling back through the heart.
