Your journey begins in the <strong>pulmonary vein<\/strong>, which is unique because it is one of the few veins in the body that carries <strong>oxygenated<\/strong> blood. The pulmonary veins return this freshly oxygenated blood from the <strong>lungs<\/strong> to the <strong>left atrium<\/strong> of the heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there, the blood passes through the <strong>mitral valve<\/strong> (one of the two \u201cflaps of endothelial tissue\u201d mentioned) into the <strong>left ventricle<\/strong>. The left ventricle then pumps blood through the <strong>aortic valve<\/strong> into the <strong>aorta<\/strong>, the main artery that distributes blood to the entire body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the oxygenated blood is in the <strong>systemic circulation<\/strong>, it travels through arteries, arterioles, and capillaries, delivering oxygen and nutrients to body tissues. The systemic circulation refers to the path the blood takes <strong>from the heart to the rest of the body (excluding the lungs)<\/strong> and back again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a <strong>white blood cell<\/strong>, you are part of the immune system, always on patrol. You may squeeze through capillary walls (a process called <strong>diapedesis<\/strong>) to reach sites of infection or inflammation in tissues. You ride along with red blood cells and plasma, but your job is to fight invaders like bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eventually, deoxygenated blood returns to the heart through the <strong>venous system<\/strong>, entering the <strong>right atrium<\/strong>, then the <strong>right ventricle<\/strong>, and is pumped back into the <strong>pulmonary artery<\/strong> to the lungs for reoxygenation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus, the phrase \u201ca trip to part of the systemic circulation\u201d reflects the portion of your journey where blood (and you as the white blood cell) is delivering vital components to the body before returning to the lungs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Incredible Journey: A Visualization Exercise For The Circulatory System All About You Are Buge Wbite Cords, Banging Imply From Two Flaps Of Endothelial Issue\u2026 33.
