  1. Amphibian Circulatory Systems. In amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, blood flow is directed in two circuits: one through the lungs and back to the heart (pulmonary circulation) and the other throughout the rest of the body and its organs, including the brain (systemiccirculation).

How many circulatory systems are in the human body?

It is one system that works together, but it is a double system. It is made up of the Pulmonary Circulatory System, which carries blood to the lungs to swap deoxygenated blood for oxygenated blood and the Systemic Circulatory System, which carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. This is why the heart has four chambers - because it is a double system.


What is a type of circulatory system in which blood is pumped through spaces called sinuses?

An open circulatory system is one in which blood is pumped through sinuses or cavities, rather than through closed vessels. This type of system is found in certain invertebrates, like insects and mollusks. Blood bathes the tissues directly in an open circulatory system.


What system transports materials to and from the body's cells?

The most obvious answer would be the Circulatory system; however, the Lymph system also transports material throughout the body, it could be compared to the sewer system in a city. If this is for homework though, the right answer would most assuredly be Circulatory system.


What kind of circulatory system do bacteria have?

Bacteria do not have a circulatory system like humans. Instead, they rely on diffusion to transport nutrients and waste products across their cell membranes. This process is efficient for small, single-celled organisms without complex body structures.


Open circulatory system to lymphatics to closed circulatory system is to blood circulatory system?

The transition from an open circulatory system to a lymphatic system involves the movement of fluid and immune cells through vessels and lymph nodes. This ultimately connects to the closed circulatory system, responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and waste products through the body. The closed circulatory system, also known as the blood circulatory system, uses the heart to pump blood through arteries, capillaries, and veins to maintain circulation.

What are the similarities between the circulatory system and an electrical circuit?

in order for a circuit to work the whole circuit has to be connected, just like the circulatory system. The heart pumps the blood around the body so that the oxygen in the blood can go around the body to the required organs or muscles. In a circuit the battery pumps the electrons around the circuit so that the bulb is able to work.

What animals do not have a double circulatory system?

Animals that do not have a double circulatory system primarily include most invertebrates and some lower vertebrates. For example, most arthropods, such as insects and crustaceans, have an open circulatory system, where blood is not confined to vessels. Additionally, some fish, like those in the class Agnatha (e.g., lampreys and hagfish), possess a single circulatory system, where blood flows in one circuit through the heart to the gills and then to the rest of the body.

What body system is similar to an electrical circuit?

The nervous system is similar to an electrical circuit in that it transmits electrical signals (nerve impulses) throughout the body to communicate and control various functions. Just like how an electrical circuit carries current to power a device, the nervous system carries impulses to coordinate body movements and regulate bodily processes.
