The main difference between the pulmonary and systemic circulation is in where the blood goes.

 In pulmonary circulation, blood is carried to and from the lungs, where it comes in contact with the oxygen-exchange  surfaces of the lungs. On the other hand in systemic circulation  blood runs to and from the cells in the rest of the body.

Another difference is that in regard to the pulmonary circulation, blood that has completed the pulmonary circuit  is rich in oxygen while in systemic circulation, blood that has completed the systemic circuit has been depleted of oxygen

Ou are shopping for groceries, and you can choose between fresh fruit and juice. Which is better for your nutrition?
FinnZ [79.3K]

In my mind, I think that fresh fruits are better because juice can contain a lot of sugar and also many brands of fruit juice in small supermarkets don't really contain a lot of real fruits, most of are just flavouring and food colouring so it's best to eat fresh fruits. In fresh fruits, the level of sugar is lower, plus some fruit skins are very nutrious and many fruit juice companies got rid of the skin in the process, so I would recommend buying fresh fruits.
