Q6. 5 MARKS QUESTION ATTEMPT ALL [ 10 MARKS]
A The separation of the right side and the left side of the heart is useful to keep oxygenated
and de-oxygenated blook from mixing. Such separation alllows a highly efficient supply of
oxygen to the body. This is useful in animals that have high energy needs, such as birds and
mammals, which constantly use energy to maintain their body temperature. In animals that
do not use energy for this purpose, the body temperature depends on the temperature in
the environment . Such animals, like amphibians or many reptiles have three- chambrered
hearts, and tolerate some mixing of the oxygenated and de-oxygenated blood streams.
Fishes, on the other hand, have only two chambers to their hearts, and the blood is pumped
to the gills, is oxygenated there, and passes directly to the rest of the body.
(a) What does the give diagram depict ?
(b) In which type of organisms would you find this type of transportation ?
(c) Explain why some animals like fishes have only two chambered heart ?
(d) From this study what can you deduct about evolution ?
B What are the functions of the following in the heart:
(i) Aorta
(ii) Inferior vena cava
(iii) Auriculoventricular valve
(iv) Semilunar valve
(v) What initiates and controls the pumping action of the heart?
