The pulmonary
circulation (pulmonary vessel system) |
 |
 |
 |
Oxygen-poor blood is transported from the right ventricle to the lung via
the pulmonary arteries. Gas exchange takes place in the lung. The blood
gives off carbon dioxide and is replenished with oxygen. This oxygen-rich
blood reaches the left ventricle via the pulmonary veins. |
