(i) — (C) A fish is an aquatic animal that has a 2 chambered heart. The heart in a fish receives deoxygenated blood from the body and pumps it to the gills directly for oxygenation. Thus, they have one auricle and one ventricle. (ii) — (D) The left side of the heart deals with the pumping of the oxygenated blood. The left atrium receives the oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary veins. (iii) — (E) The plasma part of blood leaks out of blood capillaries and enters the intercellular spaces of tissues as tissue fluid. As this tissue fluid enters into the lymph capillaries, it is called lymph. (iv) — (A) The wave of distension of an artery every time blood is forced through it is called the pulse. If the heart contracts 72 times per minute then the pulse will be 72 beats per minute. (v) — (B) The white blood cells are produced in the bone marrow and help to increase the immunity of the body by fighting infections. These cells protect the body against germs by performing phagocytosis and by producing antibodies against foreign antigens.
