One side to take the deoxygenated blood from the body and send it to the lungs and the other side to receive the oxygenated blood from the pulmonary system and pump it out to the bocy for use.
they both have a four chambered heart
Birds have a 4-chambered heart, a characteristic in common with mammals.
Mammals, birds, and crocodilians have a four-chambered heart.
Alligators have a 4 chambered heart, just like birds and mammals
Mammals and birds have four-chambered hearts.
No. Birds have only one heart, but they have four chambered hearts like all mammals and crocodiles do.
The heart of crocodiles has a more complex structure compared to other reptiles. It has a four-chambered heart similar to birds and mammals, allowing for efficient oxygenation of blood. This adaptation enables crocodiles to have greater endurance and performance in aquatic environments.
Birds, all mammals, and crocodiles all have four chambered hearts
In mammals and birds, the sinus venosus has evolved into the right atrium of the heart. This structure serves to collect and regulate blood flow entering the heart before it is pumped to the rest of the body.
I suggest you get a copy of Homer Smith's book: From Fish to Philosopher. Start with fish; they don't need a separate pulmonary system (they have gills), to amphibians who have a 3 chambered heart, up to mammals and birds who require essentially two completely separate systems for pulmonary and systemic circulation.
The bald eagle, a bird, has a four-chambered heart, as do all other birds and mammals.
Well, both birds and mammals have four heart chambers. So, there is your answer!
