Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Circulatory system in the human body is divided into two systems namely pulmonary and systemic circulation. Pulmonary circulation deals with the transport of deoxygenated blood, and the systemic circulation deals with the oxygenated blood circulation. A systemic circulation carries the oxygenated blood that comes from lungs and goes to the left atrium of the heart, which is pumped down to the left ventricle and finally is pumped out through aorta that transports the blood to all parts of the body. Pulmonary circulation carries deoxygenated blood to lungs from all the organ parts, which is pumped to the lungs through the right atrium and right ventricles of the heart.
