Systemic blood circulation is the part of the circulatory system that carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart through the aorta to the rest of the body. After delivering oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and collecting waste products like carbon dioxide, the deoxygenated blood returns to the right atrium of the heart through the vena cava. This system ensures that all body tissues receive oxygen-rich blood.
