Heart is a hollow muscular organ present in all vertebrates which pump blood to whole of the body. Evolutionary change in the heart is observed on the basis of separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood for efficient oxygen transport to the body. 
Fish heart- It is made up of 2 chambers- one auricle and one ventricle. Since there is  no division of auricles and ventricles, deoxygenated blood passes through it which enters the gills for oxygenation. It has two additional chambers such as sinus venosus and conus arteriosus.
Solution Image

Amphibian heart- It has 3 chambers- 2 auricles and one ventricle. The auricles are divided by a septum while ventricle is undivided. Additional chambers such as sinus venosus and conus arteriosus are also present. The deoxygenated blood from whole body enters the right auricle while oxygenated blood enters the left auricle from the lungs and ultimately two types of blood get mixed up in ventricle. 

Solution Image

Reptilian heart- It is incompletely 4 chambered except in crocodiles, alligators and gharials. They have only one accessory chamber called sinus venosus. The reptilian heart also shows mixed blood circulation.

Solution Image

Avian and mammalian hearts- It is made up of four chambers- 2 auricles and two ventricles. These two pairs of chambers separate oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The upper two chambers are called atria and the lower two chambers are called ventricles. The chambers are separated by a muscular wall that prevents the mixing of the blood rich in oxygen with the blood rich in carbon dioxide.

10.1.I Phases of Cell Cycle A typical eukaryotic cell cycle is illustrated by human cells in culture. These cells divide once in approximately every 24 hours (Figure ). However, this duratlon of cell cycle can vary from organism to organism and also from cell type to cell type. Yeast for example, can progress through the cell cycle in only about 90 minutes. The cell cycle is divided into two basic phases: - Interphase - M Phase (Mitosis phase) The M Phase represents the phase when the actual cell division or mitosis occurs and the interphase represents the phase between two successive phases. It is significant to note Figure A diagrammatic view of cell cycle that in the 24 hour average duration of cell cycle of a human cell, cell division proper lasts for only about an hour. The interphase lasts more than of the duration of cell cycle. The M Phase starts with the nuclear division, corresponding to the separation of daughter chromosomes (karyokinesis) and usually ends with division of cytoplasm (cytokinesis). The interphase, though called the resting phase, is the time during which the cell is preparing for division by undergoing both cell growth and DNA replication in an orderly manner. The interphase is divided into three further phases: - Ga phase (Gap 1) - S phase (Synthesis) - phase (Gap 2) phase corresponds to the interval between mitosis and initiation grow all their lives? , of DNA replication. During phase the cell is metabolically active and Do all cells in a plant fieres, continuously grows but does not replicate its DNA.
