Q

Explain how a frog heart is less effective because of how many chambers it has

A

Frog only has a single ventricle therefore oxygenated and deoxygenated blood mix. The blood that is pumped around the body is therefore not fully oxygenated. And humans we have two separate ventricles so only oxygenated blood is pumped around the body.
