Small organisms: single - more simple
Large organisms: double - explanation below :')
In any organism nutrients and oxygen need to be delivered quickly around the whole body so it can survive. In a small organism with a large surface area this is fairly easy, but in larger organisms a single loop might not suffice.
If a single loop has to go a long way, the pressure in the vessels ends up being low, because the amount of pressure the heart would have to exert on the arteries would cause them to burst. Low pressure means the blood moves very slowly around the body. A double system prevents this, as the cycle is separated and a different part of the heart can pump the blood to the lungs to be oxygenated then on to the body.

What is a single loop circulatory system?
It's the simpler that exist in vertebrates that has gills as the site of gas exchange, wile other organism have a double loop circulatory system that have lungs instead of gills.
Advantages of single circulatory system?
The Heart can increase the pressure of the blood after the blood has picked up oxygen from the lungs, which means it can transport it to the body tissues much quicker. and, It also seperates the Oxygenated blood to the Deoxygenated Blood
What animals have a single circulatory system?
Lower animals like the moluscsearthworm
Is vesicle single or double membrane?
The vesicle is a single membrane, where a vacuole is a double membrane.
Is trna double stranded or single stranded?
tRNA, or transfer RNA, is a single stranded molecule. The only double stranded RNA is dsRNA, or double stranded RNA. They are typically found in viruses.
Do amphibians have a single loop circulatory system?
no they have double loop circulatory system but the difference is that they have single ventricle.
What are two types of circulatory system?
there are both single and double circulatory systems.fish have single ones, and birds have double.in double circulatory system the blood travels trough the heart twice in it's way around the body, while in the single it only goes through the heart once.Answer by FutureLPGAgolferThe answer came from my homework and I got it right, it's the Open system and the Closed system.explain how number of exercises affects the breathing rate?
What are the two types of circulatory systems in invertebrates?
They have Both single and Double circulatory sestem inVertebtres.
What type of circulatory system does phylum arthropoda have?
close circulatory system
What type of circulatory system does coral have?
Coral don't have circulatory systems. They just have a gastrovascular system!
Do birds have single or double circulatory systems?
In a single circulatory system blood is pumped from the heart to the gas exchange organ and the to the rest of the body. In a single circulatory system low blood pressure is maintained. Blood travels to organs more slowly. In a double circulatory system blood is pumped from the heart to the gas exchange organ and again to the heart and from the heart the blood is pumped to the rest of the body. In a double circulatory system high blood pressure is maintained as blood must be pumped at a faster rate to the parts of the body. blood travels more faster to organs Animals with single circulatory systems, e.g:Fish Animals with double circulatory systems, e.g:Humans
Is the circulatory system of a bony fish open or closed?
Closed, With a "Single loop" that pumps from the heart to the rest of the body, back to the heart and so on.
Do reptiles have a double-loop circulatory system?
In most reptiles, the ventricle* is partially divided. This reduces mixing of oxygenated and unoxygenated blood in the ventricle.* = a.either of the two lower chambers on each side of theheart that receive blood from the atria and in turn forceit into the arteries. b.one of a series of connecting cavities of the brain.
What type of circulatory system do animals that use lungs for breathing have?
A circulatory system that involves the lungs is referred to as a double circulatory system. This is opposed to a single loop circulation that fishes have.
Which method is better-single touch or double touch?
double touch method is better
What is the disadvantage of a single circulatory system?
The need for a powerful heart and greater energy expenditure are both disadvantages of a closed circulatory system. Even with its disadvantages, a closed circulatory system is much more efficient than an open one.
What is better single din or double din?
I think is double din.
