The pulmonary circuit is the circulation of blood that sends blood away fromt he heart via the pulmonary arteries to the lungs so that the oxygen poor blood becomes oxygenated. After this, the oxygenated blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins.

The pulmonary circuit is the path blood takes from the heart, to the lungs, and back to the heart again. This is necessary for the oxygenation of red blood cells to occur.

Tracing blood from the heart to the liver and back?

Oxygen-rich blood leaves the heart through the aorta and travels to the liver through the hepatic artery. In the liver, the blood exchanges nutrients and waste products. The blood then returns to the heart through the hepatic vein, where it is pumped to the lungs for oxygenation.
