Question

which circulation pathway is aorta a part of?

Answer 1

We have two circulation pathways - pulmonary circulation, and systemic circulation. One brings blood to the lungs to be oxygenated; the other brings oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.

The aorta, connected to our left ventricle, brings oxygenated blood to supply our bodies. Therefore - it belongs to the systemic pathway.

Answer 2

Your pulmonary arteries and veins bring blood away from the heart and back to the heart (from the lungs) in the pulmonary circulation pathway.

I agree. I also think that the aorta is a part of the systemic circulation.

How does the pulmonary vien differ from the other veins in the body?
