Definition:
                  "The type of circulation pathway in which venous blood is passed
                   <span>from the right atrium of the heart through the right ventricle  and 
</span>                   pulmonary<span> arteries to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its                             return via the </span>pulmonary<span> veins to enter the left auricle and                                                      participate in the systemic </span>circulation"<span>.

Explanation:
                     There are two circulatory path in cardiovascular system namely pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation. Pulmonary circulation path allows for blood circulation through lungs for oxygenation while systemic circulation allows for transport of oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

Pulmonary Circulation Pathway:
                                                      Pulmonary circulation pathway consist of:

1. Superior and inferior vena cava:
                                                       De-oxygenated blood from lower parts of the body enter to right atrium through inferior vena cava. Similary, deoxygenated blood from upper parts of the body enter to right atrium through superior vena cava.

2. Right atrium and right ventricle:
                                                          From right atrium the blood passes to right ventricle through tricuspid valve. 

</span><span> 3. Pulmonary artery:
                                Afterwards, the blood enters the pulmonary artery via the pulmonary valve. The pulmonary artery divides into two arteries with one artery entering the right lung and the other artery entering the left lung. When the blood reaches the lungs through the left and right pulmonary arteries, it moves over alveoli via the capillary beds. </span><span>

</span><span>4. Left atrium and left ventricle:
                                                 After the blood gets oxygenated, it moves back to the heart and this time moves into the left atrium, completing the pulmonary circulation path.</span><span>

A damages axon in the PNS may be able to regenerate only if the cell body is intact. Why do you think that the cell body must be
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Explanation:

The central nervous system (CNS) does not have capacity to repair itself but, the PNS or the peripheral nervous system can repair and regenerate itself. The PNS can regenerate its damaged axon only when its cell body or cyton and its neurilemma are intact. The proximal end of the cyton has growth cones. The axon grows from the cones.
