The best answer is b.  4

The human heart has  four chambers - two atria and two ventricles.

1. Right atrium -  receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to the right ventricle.

2. Right ventricle -  pumps oxygen-poor blood to the heart.

3. Left atrium - receive oxygen - rich blood from the  lungs.

4. Left ventricle - pumps oxygen rich blood to the body.

The heart is a muscular organ. It is about the size of a closed fist. It is located in the thoracic cavity. It is protected by the rib cage and is the major organ of the circulatory system.

Answer:b

Explanation: the human heart contains 4 chambers -2 atria and 2 ventricle while a fish contains only 2 chambers- 1 auricle and 1 ventricle.

In humans, the right atrium receives deoxygenated blood and transfers it to right ventricle from where it gets transferred to the blood. Left atrium receives the pure blood and transfers it to left ventricle.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: Antibiotics targets the synthesis of protein, nucleic acid, folate and cell wall.

1. Synthesis of protein; antibiotics binds to either 30s or 50s ribosomal subunits blocking the polypeptide from the exiting the tunnel thus inhibiting a full completion of protein expression or production.

2. Nucleic acid synthesis; Antibiotics also act by inhibiting genetic expression, DNA transcription and replication where DNA makes exact copies of itself, as well as RNA molecules preventing bacterial growth.

3. Cell wall synthesis; Inhibition of cell wall synthesis in microorganisms will prevent it from replication and growth.

4. Folate synthesis; Folic acid also known as vitamin B9 helps in DNA replication and cell division. Folate antagonists such as aminopterin kills bacteria by preventing folic acid production required for DNA replication.
