A double circulatory system is composed of a PULMONARY circuit and a(n) SYSTEMIC circuit

Pulmonary circulation means where blood goes to lungs to get purified and exchange gases, i.e. CO2 is released into the lungs and oxygen is taken into the blood.

Systemic circulation is between heart and entire body, where oxygen is supplied to every cell of the body and CO2 is absorbed.
