Understanding Double Circulation

Front

What is double circulation?

Back

Double circulation is the system of blood flow in humans consisting of two circuits: pulmonary and systemic.

Front

What is the role of the heart in double circulation?

Back

The heart separates oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, facilitating efficient double circulation.

Front

How do the lungs contribute to double circulation?

Back

The lungs oxygenate blood in the pulmonary circulation, which is part of the double circulation system.

Front

What is pulmonary circulation?

Back

Pulmonary circulation is the part of the double circulation system that oxygenates blood and removes carbon dioxide.

Front

What is systemic circulation?

Back

Systemic circulation is the part of double circulation that delivers oxygenated blood to the body and returns deoxygenated blood to the heart.

Front

How are nutrients transported in double circulation?

Back

Nutrients are transported in double circulation through the bloodstream from the intestines to body cells after being oxygenated in the lungs.

Front

What is the significance of oxygenation in double circulation?

Back

Oxygenation is crucial for providing oxygen to body cells and removing carbon dioxide from the blood.

Front

What happens to deoxygenated blood in double circulation?

Back

Deoxygenated blood is sent to the lungs for oxygenation through pulmonary circulation.

Front

What is the function of arteries in double circulation?

Back

Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body in systemic circulation.

Front

What is the function of veins in double circulation?

Back

Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart from the body.
