Definition of Blood Circulation

In man, arterial blood is expelled from the left side of the heart. It is then transported to the different organs of our body. It then passes into the venous network to return to the right side of the heart. The one then expels it to the lungs, so that the blood is oxygenated again. It eventually returns to the left side of the heart and the cycle begins again. In addition to oxygen, blood circulation also distributes the various nutrients that cells need.
