The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each statement provided in the options and determine which one is correct. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the First Statement:** - Statement: "Interarterial septum is a thick partition while atrioventricular partitions are thin." - Explanation: The interatrial septum (not interarterial) is actually a thin partition that separates the left and right atria. In contrast, the atrioventricular septum (which includes the structures separating the atria from the ventricles) is thicker. - Conclusion: This statement is **incorrect**. 2. **Analyze the Second Statement:** - Statement: "Mitral valve is having two fibrous non-muscular cusps." - Explanation: The mitral valve, also known as the bicuspid valve, does indeed have two cusps, but these cusps are fibrous and muscular, not non-muscular. - Conclusion: This statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Analyze the Third Statement:** - Statement: "Size of heart is equivalent to the size of clenched fist." - Explanation: It is a common anatomical reference that the size of an adult human heart is approximately the size of a clenched fist. This is a widely accepted fact in anatomy. - Conclusion: This statement is **correct**. 4. **Analyze the Fourth Statement:** - Statement: "All of the above." - Explanation: Since the first two statements are incorrect and only the third statement is correct, this option cannot be correct. - Conclusion: This statement is **incorrect**. ### Final Answer: The correct statement is: **"Size of heart is equivalent to the size of clenched fist."** ---
