Summary Introduction

To determine: The sequence of the blood vessel and heart chambers through which a red blood cell pass on its way from the carotid artery to the superior vena cava.

Introduction: Most of the vertebrates have two types of circulation including pulmonary and systemic circulation in blood vessels. Pulmonary circulation circulates the deoxygenated blood to the lungs, to make it oxygenated and then it passes the blood to the heart. Systemic circulation circulates the oxygenated blood from the heart to the other body tissues and then revert the deoxygenated blood back to the heart.
