Question

What is the double circulation?

Open in App
Solution

In human beings, oxygenated blood is received by the left atria while deoxygenated blood is received by the right atria, which then pass it on to their respective ventricles.
This prevents the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood from mixing. This unique pathway is called double circulation.
