Humans have a double circulatory system. Blood passes through the heart twice as it circulates in the body

Path 1 : from the heart to the lungs and back again to the heart

The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from different parts of the body and pushes it into the right
ventricle. The right side of the heart then pumps blood to the lungs to collect oxygen and remove carbon
dioxide

Path 2: from the heart to the rest of the body again to the heart

The oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium and flows into the left ventricle. Then the left side of the heart
pumps blood to the rest of the body to supply oxygen to the cells and to collect carbon dioxide

Comparison between oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood

Oxygenated blood Differences Deoxygenated blood

Higher Concentration of dissolved oxygen Lower

Lower Concentration of dissolve carbon Higher
