Solution

The part of the circulation in which blood travels through the body to deliver oxygen is known as the systemic circulation. After delivering oxygen, the blood receives carbon dioxide from the body’s cells and brings it back to the heart. Here, the blood is again pumped, this time to the lungs, through the pulmonary circulation. Thus the entire circulation has two parts: the systemic circulation and the pulmonary circulation.
