In poikilothermic vertebrates, circulatory pathways show evolutionary progression to accommodate respiratory adaptations. Which of the following statements correctly contrasts the path of deoxygenated blood entering the heart in an adult amphibian with that in a bony fish (Class Pisces)?
- In adult amphibians, deoxygenated blood from the body enters the right atrium before reaching the single ventricle, whereas in bony fish, deoxygenated blood flows sequentially through the sinus venosus, atrium, and ventricle.Cevap
- BIn adult amphibians, deoxygenated blood from systemic circulation enters the left atrium, whereas in bony fish, deoxygenated blood enters a two-chambered ventricle directly from the gills.
- CIn adult amphibians, deoxygenated blood is pumped into a four-chambered heart with complete septation, whereas in bony fish, deoxygenated blood bypasses the heart and flows directly to systemic organs.
- DIn adult amphibians, deoxygenated blood bypasses the atrium completely into the conus arteriosus, whereas in bony fish, deoxygenated blood is received by a three-chambered heart consisting of two atria and one ventricle.
Cevap
In adult amphibians, deoxygenated blood from the body enters the right atrium before reaching the single ventricle, whereas in bony fish, deoxygenated blood flows sequentially through the sinus venosus, atrium, and ventricle.
Bony fish (Pisces) have single circulation where a two-chambered heart (one atrium, one ventricle, preceded by the sinus venosus) handles exclusively deoxygenated blood. Adult amphibians (Amphibia) possess a three-chambered heart with double circulation; deoxygenated blood returning from the body tissues enters the right atrium, while oxygenated blood enters the left atrium.
