Kernkreislauf
The Kernkreislauf, also known as the central circulation or core circulation, is a fundamental concept in the study of circulatory systems, particularly in the context of the human cardiovascular system. It refers to the primary loop of blood flow that carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body's tissues and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart. This process is crucial for the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells and the removal of waste products such as carbon dioxide.
The Kernkreislauf begins at the left ventricle of the heart, where oxygen-rich blood is pumped into the
The heart then pumps this deoxygenated blood into the lungs via the pulmonary arteries. In the lungs,
The efficiency of the Kernkreislauf is essential for maintaining homeostasis and overall health. Any disruption in
