Chambers in the heart: The heart is divided into chambers in order to prevent the mixing of oxygenated blood with deoxygenated blood. A complete vertical partition of the heart into left and right chambers ensures a complete separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. This type of partition is seen in animals having a double circulation system with two circuits. These animals (e.g. mammals, birds and crocodiles) have lungs.
In one circuit blood flows between the heart and the lungs and in the second circuit it flows between the heart and the body. The heart has four chambers: two atria (often called auricles) and two ventricles. Such a heart is called double heart. This type of complete separation into chambers provides an ample supply of oxygen to all parts of the body. These animals are quite active, so they have a high rate of respiration and require an efficient supply of oxygen. Birds and mammals, being warm blooded, need to spend energy to regulate their body temperature. This also requires oxygen.
Some vertebrates do not use energy for temperature regulation. Their temperature fluctuates with that of the environment and we call them cold blooded. In these animals (except crocodiles) there is some mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the heart. This does not harm the animals as their energy demands are not very high. In amphibians the heart is three chambered, having two atria and a single ventricle. Such a heart is called ‘transitional heart’. In most reptiles there are two atria and an incompletely divided ventricle.
Fish have a single circulation system. Their heart is two chambered, having one atrium and one ventricle. Such a heart is called ’single heart’. The fish heart receives and pumps only impure blood. The impure blood goes to the gills for oxygenation and from there it goes to different parts of the body. The impure blood returns to the heart for being pumped out to the gills. Therefore, the fish heart is also called ‘venous heart’.
Which of the following are correct ? (a) The heart is divided into chambers in order to prevent the mixing of oxygenated blood with deoxygenated blood. (b) In amphibians the heart is three chambered, having two atria and a single ventricle. | |||

It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
