Amphibians have vessels leading Amphibians have vessels leading from the pulmonary arteries to the from the pulmonary arteries to the skin that receive deoxygenated blood skin that receive deoxygenated blood and allow the capillaries in the skin and allow the capillaries in the skin to remove carbon dioxide and even to remove carbon dioxide and even absorb some oxygen.absorb some oxygen.
Systemic and Pulmonary Systemic and Pulmonary CirculationCirculation
Systemic - Supplies nourishment and Systemic - Supplies nourishment and removes wastes from the tissue removes wastes from the tissue located throughout the bodylocated throughout the body
Pulmonary – blood vessels in the Pulmonary – blood vessels in the lungs flow to and from capillaries lungs flow to and from capillaries where oxygen is absorbed and where oxygen is absorbed and carbon dioxide is removed.carbon dioxide is removed.
