b) option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The circulatory system is a network consisting of blood, blood vessels, and the heart
  • This network supplies tissues in the body with oxygen and other nutrients, transports hormones, and removes unnecessary waste products
  • The human circulatory system consists of several circuits:
  • The pulmonary circuit provides blood flow between the heart and lungs
  • The systemic circuit allows blood to flow to and from the rest of the body
  • The coronary circuit strictly provides blood to the heart
