Question
sir can you please help in giving me good ideas about how can i make a good bio model of a circulatory system
i have taken part in a national contest

Answer
Hi Genelia:  Thanks for your question.

The first thing to remember is that the circulatory system is a double pump.  One pump goes to the lungs, the other to the body.

You can get a great movie here:
