Chapter 20, Problem 4CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason behind illustrating the pulmonary artery in blue color and the location to which the blood is travelling via the pulmonary artery.
Introduction:
The circulatory system in the body is designated with the function of transportation of nutrients and gases in the whole body. The circulatory system is constituted by various kind of blood vessels to perform the function of transportation as well as circulation. In humans, circulation is referred to as double circulation because the oxygenated and the deoxygenated blood are transported separately.
