we need to get oxygen through our system. 2. Make sure you know which circuits the left and right heart pump into (pulmonary or systemic). Also know the status of blood (fully oxygenated or not) at -the aorta: Left‚systematic‚ and fully oxygenated. -a pulmonary vein: Left side‚ pulmonary‚ and fully oxygenated. Goes from the right side of the body(heart) into the (left) pulmonary veins then goes to the left atrium then to the left ventricle then through the aorta‚ then to the rest of the body.
