Respiration and Circulation MCQ with Answers: Important points
  1. Respiration is a vital function of all living cells. It is function of the protoplasm and not confined to any particular organ or tissue. 
  2. In this process food is broken down into simpler compounds such as carbon dioxide and water by an oxidative process and the energy stored in food is released in active form. 
  3. This energy is used up by the plant in growth and other physiological processes which require an expenditure of energy.
  4. Besides transport of metabolites and gases, animals need to remove the waste products formed in their tissues, transportation of hormones to the target tissues and maintain homeostasis. 
  5. All these functions are performed by the circulatory system. 
  6. The system in which blood is circulated throughout the body is called circulatory system.

a. Earthworm.
b. Rabbit
c. Butterfly

c. adipocytes
d. leucocytes
Answer : Leucocytes

b. AV node
c. His bundle
d. Purkinje fibers
