[active] drug moiety

It's not a whole molecule but rather a part of the molecule responsible for its pharmacological effects. And it's not "circulated in the system" but "systemic circulation", which means the bloodstream (to be exact, not the entire bloodstream but the portion of it from the left ventricle through the body and back to the right atrium, but isn't relevant for this question).
