Solution

Each point: 1 Mark

Pulmonary circulation is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated (oxygen-rich) blood back to the heart.
The other type of circulation is systemic circulation. In this, oxygenated blood from the heart is carried to all the parts of the body.
