Two red blood cells find themselves together, traveling side by side in a capillary of their owner’s
right big toe. They are giving off their oxygen to the local “toe tissues.” From this point, trace the route they each follow as, on the next heartbeat, they reach their next destinations, shown below. (Only major blood vessels, researched in your text, need be listed). Write your answer as a flow sheet using boxes and arrows to indicate vessel name and direction of flow.


red blood cell #1 - will be pumped to the owner’s right earlobe
red blood cell #2 - will be pumped to the thumb of the owner’s right hand
