Veins and Arteries, I believe is what you are asking about.

Arteries carry freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs; veins return the 'spent' blood to the lungs for a recharge.

Arteries carry greater blood pressure.

The two major blood circuit are the Pulmonary Circuit which is the circuit that runs through the lungs and the Systemic Circuit, Which is the circuit that takes the blood through the body.

Describe the 3 kinds of blood circulation briefly?

Systemic circulation: Carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body tissues and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Pulmonary circulation: Moves deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart. Coronary circulation: Supplies oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle itself through a network of blood vessels.


What are the components of the pulmonary circuit and the systemic circuit?

The heart is responsible for pumping the blood to every cell in the body. It is also responsible for pumping blood to the lungs, where the blood gives up carbon dioxide and takes on oxygen. The heart is able to pump blood to both regions efficiently because there are really two separate circulatory circuits with the heart as the common link. Some authors even refer to the heart as two separate hearts, a right heart in the pulmonary circuit and left heart in the systemic circuit. In the pulmonary circuit, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonary arteries, goes to the lungs, and returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins.


What is the difference between the pulmonay and systemic circuit?

The pulmonary circuit is blood flow movements from the pulmonary trunk to the left atrium...while the systemic circuit is a continuation from the left atrium all the way to the right atrium.......... Disclaimer [research for detailed blood movements in pulmonary circuit and systemic circuit if this isn't enough].


What is meaning of blood circuit?

A blood circuit is the pathway blood travels from the heart out of the aorta to the rest of the body (oxygenated blood), then (deoxygenated blood) returns back to the heart to be sent to the lungs to exchange CO2 for oxygen then returns back to the starting point to leave the heart through the aorta again. A blood circuit is the pathway blood takes from a certain point then eventually returning back to that point.

What are Two major pathways for the circulatory system?

The blood vessels of the body are functionally divided into two distinctive circuits: pulmonary circuit and systemic circuit. The pump for the pulmonary circuit, which circulates blood through the lungs, is the right ventricle. The left ventricle is the pump for the systemic circuit, which provides the blood supply for the tissue cells of the body.
