The 3 main pathways through

which blood flows each time the

heart pumps
1. pulmonary circulation
2. systemic circulation
3. coronary circulation
 Pulmonary circulation- the flow
of the blood from the heart to the
lungs and back to the heart.
Systemic circulation- the flow of
blood from the heart to all the
systems of the body
Coronary circulation – The movement of the
blood through the tissues of the heart
- The heart needs food
nutrients and oxygen to be able to function
well.
- These food nutrients and oxygen are
brought to the heart cells by the blood.
