Ive got an extremely dumb question for you guys. Our paramedic instructor asked us to trace a single red blood cell from the right antecubital vein throughout the body. Im pretty good with cardiac/pulmonary circulation but I am unable to find a good diagram/description of peripheral vascular structure. I am in no way asking you guys for the answer, just need to know a good place to start my search online. Ive typed in just about every variation of "blood flow through the body" on google and I am coming up short. Thank you guys in advance for helping this little guy out!

Fascinating, isn't it?
