Deoxygenated blood returns to the heart in the right atrium by the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava. From the right atrium the blood flows through a valve and into the right ventricle. The ventricle ejects the deoxygenated blood into the lungs by the pulmonary artery (only artery in the body carrying deoxygenated blood). Once the blood is in the lungs, it is distributed to capillary beds which allow very large surface area for deoxygenated blood to become oxygenated from the air we inhale (side note: only about 30% of atmospheric air is oxygen - the rest is mostly nitrogen). as the blood becomes freshly oxygenated it also releases carbon dioxide (metabolic by product) which you exhale. the oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium of the heart by the pulmonary vein (only vein to carry oxygenated blood). from the left atrium the blood passes through a valve and into the stronger of the two ventricles - the left ventricle. the left ventricle then forcefully ejects oxygenated blood out to the body by the aorta.
Your right side of the heart pumps blood in the pulmonary circulation. The pulmonary circulation should start from the origin of the pulmonary aorta.
Is called pulmonary circulation .
lungs
The respiratory circulation is also referred to as the pulmonary circulation or the pulmonary system. It is responsible for the circulation of blood between the heart and the lungs, where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen.
Pulmonary circulation is different because it is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation, whereas systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Pulmonary circulation has lower pressure compared to systemic circulation to prevent damage to the delicate lung tissue.

Pulmonary and systemic
Your right side of the heart pumps blood in the pulmonary circulation. The pulmonary circulation should start from the origin of the pulmonary aorta.
Pulmonary circulation is the movement of blood from the heart, to the lungs, and back.
The process by which blood moves between the heart and the lungs is called pulmonary circulation. Deoxygenated blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs through the pulmonary arteries, where it picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. The oxygenated blood then returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins.
the pulmonary circulation begins in the right atrium and ends at the aorta.
after it is done with the pulmonary circulation it goes directly to the lungs
The arteries of the pulmonary circulation differ from those of the systemic circulation in that they carry?
No
The blood circulation in the Lungs, called the pulmonary circulation, is COMPLETELY a part of the general, systemic circulation of Blood.
after it is done with the pulmonary circulation it goes directly to the lungs
