Left ventricle to the aortic arch to the subclavian artery to the axillary artery to the brachial artery to the ulnar artery to the superficial palmar arch to the common palmar digital arteries, where it would travel through arterioles into the distal capillary bed, then into venules returning blood to the palmar digital veins, which flow into (for example) the basilic vein to the brachial vein to the axillary vein to the subclavian vein, and back to the superior vena cava, and then back into the right atrium. : ) >> Can someone answer this question for me? >> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > >: ) Unfortunately, that RBC went to the arm and never made it to the toe.
