Introduction:

The heart supplies blood to all parts of the body through two circulations—pulmonary and systemic. The systemic circulation ensures a supply of blood to all the body organs except the lungs. The pulmonary circulation takes place between the heart and the lungs. In this way, the blood is oxygenated and returns to the heart. There is another kind of blood circulation, known as coronary circulation.
