It notes that fish have less efficient systems due to pressure loss in gills, while squids use separate pumps. Amphibians possess three-chambered hearts with some blood mixing, whereas lizards have a muscular septum to enhance separation.

What makes blood so special that it features in widespread myths? Although blood accounts for less than 10 percent of human body weight, it is quite literally the elixir of life. As blood travels through the vessels of the cardiovascular system, it delivers vital substances such as nutrients and oxygen to all of the cells and carries away their metabolic wastes.
