The main advantage of a closed circulatory system, as seen in annelids and chordates, is:
1. Blood is circulated more quickly, more precisely and at higher pressure to the organs.
2. Blood directly bathes the tissues, facilitating faster diffusion of gases.
3. Nutrients and waste are exchanged more efficiently in open spaces.
4. The heart does not require chambers for efficient circulation.

Consider the given two statements:
Statement I: Fishes possess a two-chambered heart with an atrium and a ventricle, where deoxygenated blood is pumped to the gills for oxygenation.
Statement II: Birds and mammals possess a four-chambered heart, which ensures complete separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
Options:
1. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
2. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
3. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
4. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.

Heart failure is different from cardiac arrest because:
1. Heart failure refers to the heart’s inability to pump sufficient blood, while cardiac arrest is when the heart stops beating entirely.
2. Heart failure only affects the ventricles, whereas cardiac arrest affects the atria.
3. Heart failure is reversible, while cardiac arrest is not.
4. Cardiac arrest is caused by hypertension, while heart failure is caused by valve malfunction.
