Answer:
They don't have hearts or even an arterial system (veins, arteries). They have an "air system" which is a set of open tubes running through the body from openings on the body called spiracles. It's highly efficient for very small living creatures; it is used by a lot of insects. The problem with it for larger animals is that there is nothing to force higher rates of oxygen when necessary to parts of the body so the system is limited by movement (think of sharks who cannot stop and just float - they don't force water past the gills, their movement forces water through the gills. If the shark stops, he stops breathing -- BAD!) Faster movement can cause faster oxygen flow, to a limit, then the air ceases to flow (turbulence has set in) and oxygen deprivation sets in. {Yay us, boo mosquito.}

Is the mammalian heart a two sided muscular pump?
Yes- the mammalian heart is a big muscle that has a right and a left side, each with two small chambers: the ventricle and the atrium. Each chamber of the heart pumps at a slightly different time, but each atrioventricular pair pumps closer together than to the other two, leading to to the rhythmic two-pump sound you can hear through your chest.
What are between the chambers of the heart?
pumps
What pumps and transports blood?
The heart pumps blood, and it is transported by your veins and arteries.
What pumps the blood out of the heart?
The heart is a muscle, but it is NOT in the muscular system, and pumps blood to all parts of the body :)
What are actual pumps of the heart?
The pumps inside the heart are four chambers that work together to pump blood to your lungs and your body. There are two upper chambers called atria and two lower larger chambers called ventricles.
What lower chambers of the heart that pumps blood out of the organ?
Ventricles
What are the lower chambers of the heart that pumps blood out of the organ?
Ventricles
What is the hollow muscular organ that pumps blood through the body?
Your Heart is an organ that pumps blood through your body.
How Human Blood Circulates?
Mammalian heart including man is two pumps in one consisting of four chambers. Humans have an efficient double circuit circulation i.e., pulmonary and systemic.
What is collecting the chambers of the heart?
The heart has 4 chambers. The "collecting chamber of the heart", or the atria , is the two chambers that are located above the other two chambers. It carries the responsibility in helping to pump the blood out of the chambers and making sure no blood pumps back in.
What organ pumps blood through the frog?
The heart is a muscle, but it is NOT in the muscular system, and pumps blood to all parts of the body :)
What is the lower chambers of the heart that pumps blood into the pulmonary artery?
Right ventricle
