It starts with the <strong>left ventricle<\/strong> pumping blood into the <strong>ascending aorta<\/strong>, which then arches and gives off branches, including the <strong>common carotid artery<\/strong> that carries blood to the head, neck, and face. Here, oxygen is delivered to tissues through the <strong>capillary beds of the head, neck, and face<\/strong>, and deoxygenated blood returns via the <strong>internal jugular vein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, arteries branch to supply the upper limbs, with blood reaching the <strong>capillary beds of the upper limb<\/strong> before returning through veins. Blood continues down the body through the <strong>descending aorta<\/strong>, supplying organs like the kidneys through the <strong>renal artery<\/strong>, where oxygen exchange happens in the <strong>capillary beds of the kidneys<\/strong>. Deoxygenated blood exits via the <strong>renal vein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the abdominal region, the <strong>inferior mesenteric artery<\/strong> supplies the large intestine. The digestive organs (stomach, intestines, spleen) have their own <strong>capillary beds<\/strong>, which drain into the <strong>gastric and splenic veins<\/strong>. These veins merge into the <strong>hepatic portal vein<\/strong>, a crucial vessel that brings nutrient-rich blood into the liver. Inside the liver, blood passes through <strong>capillary beds of the liver and hepatic portal system branches<\/strong>, allowing detoxification and processing before draining into the <strong>hepatic vein<\/strong>, and then into the <strong>inferior vena cava<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the lower limbs, blood travels through the <strong>external iliac artery<\/strong>, moves through the <strong>capillary beds of the lower limb<\/strong>, and returns via matching veins, eventually flowing into the inferior vena cava.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This efficient circulation ensures all body tissues receive oxygen and nutrients and that waste products are efficiently removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardiovascular System: Blood Vessels Art-Labeling ActivityThe big picture of systemic blood flow in the body.
