The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Blood Circulation Types**: - Blood circulation can be classified into single circulation and double circulation. - In single circulation, blood passes through the heart only once during a complete circuit of the body. - In double circulation, blood passes through the heart twice during a complete circuit of the body. 2. **Identifying Amphibian Circulation**: - Amphibians are known to have a unique type of circulation due to their three-chambered heart. - The heart consists of two atria and one ventricle. 3. **Chambers of the Amphibian Heart**: - The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs. - The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body. - Both types of blood mix in the single ventricle. 4. **Determining the Type of Double Circulation**: - Since the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood mix in the ventricle, amphibians do not have complete separation of the two blood types. - This leads to the conclusion that amphibians have an "incomplete double circulation." 5. **Final Conclusion**: - Based on the structure of the amphibian heart and the mixing of blood, the correct answer to the question is "incomplete double circulation." ### Final Answer: The type of blood circulation in amphibians is **incomplete double circulation**. ---
