C

Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the pulmonary circuit: The pulmonary circuit is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and bringing oxygenated blood back to the heart.
Identify the starting point: The pulmonary circuit begins with the right ventricle, which pumps deoxygenated blood into the pulmonary arteries.
Trace the path to the lungs: The pulmonary arteries carry the deoxygenated blood to the lungs, where gas exchange occurs, and the blood becomes oxygenated.
Follow the return path: The oxygenated blood is then carried back to the heart through the pulmonary veins.
Determine the endpoint: The pulmonary veins deliver the oxygenated blood to the left atrium, completing the pulmonary circuit.
