In what 2 ways is an insect's circulatory system different from a vertebrate's circulatory system? (choose 2 answers)
Question 14 options:
The insect has closed circulatory system.
Insects have a tracheal system that delivers oxygen to it's cells directly so it is not associated with the circulatory system.
Insects have a tracheal system that delivers oxygen to it's circulatory system.
The insect has an open circulatory system instead of one that is closed (as in vertebrates). This means that the circulatory fluid of vertebrates moves much faster than that of insects.
Which of the following vertebrates has a single-circuit circulatory system? Check all that apply.
A tuna
A lungfish
A shark
A snake
A bird
A frog
