In which vertebrate does deoxygenated blood and oxygenated blood get mixed?

Amphibians


Why does oxygenated blood reach the muscles and organs more rapidly in amphibians than it does in a fish?

Fish have a "single loop" circulation and Amphibians have a "double loop" circulation.


Do fish have single loop circulation?

YES! You see, fish lack lungs compared to land vertebrates and some amphibians. Basically oxygen is passed through their gills once, which defuses to blood cells and carried to the rest of the body. Lacking lungs, the return process of de-oxygenated blood is a hassle in which the already used blood must return the same way it came in. Unlike fish, we humans (as well as many other land vertebrates) do not have to worry as we have 2 lungs (one side to oxygenate blood and the other to receive blood to be oxygenated).


Why we say amphibians and reptiles have incomplete double circulation?

With the exception of crocodilians, reptiles and amphibians have only two chambers in their hearts: two atria and a single ventricle. The single ventricle allows oxygenated blood to mix with deoxygenated blood.


Do fish amphibians reptiles mammal birds have lungs?

Neither. It is a fish. That is why it is called a “Puffer fish.”


In amphibians, the ventricle separates the atrium into right and left halves?

yes as opposed to humans whose ventricle does not separate the atrium, amphibians have two separate halves to the atrium for circulation and more productive respiratory activity in and out of water


Are capillaries oxygenated or de-oxygenated?

oxygenated


Do frogs spened more time in water or on the land?

Most frogs live terrestrial, on land. Some are aquatic and never leave the water but are a minority. Most frogs lay their eggs in water but some do not and live completely terrestrial. They lay their eggs in moist environments and don't have an aquatic larval stage.


What kind of heart do amphibians possess?

Amphibians possess a tri-chambered heart, that is, which contains two atria (the right and the left) and one ventricle. The right atrium receives de-oxygenated blood from the entire body and the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs. These two get mixed up to some extent in the ventricle. Hence, the hearts of amhibians is not as much effective as in the birds and the mammals. There is an incomplete circulation of blood.


When blood reenters the heart is it deoxygenated or oxygenated?

Oxygenated


Why is having three heart chambers a advancement necessary for a land animal?

Having three heart chambers, as seen in some amphibians, is an evolutionary advancement for land animals because it allows for more efficient circulation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. This adaptation supports a higher metabolic rate required for terrestrial life, enabling better oxygen delivery to tissues. Additionally, the separation of blood flow helps maintain higher blood pressure in the systemic circulation, which is crucial for sustaining active lifestyles on land. Overall, this adaptation enhances the animal's ability to thrive in a terrestrial environment.


Do worms sweat?

Yes, amphibians do breath through their skin, because their lungs are too small and undeveloped, so they cannot provide the amphibians with all the oxygen needed.
