Which one of the following has an open circulatory system?
- Pheretima
- Periplaneta
- Hirudinaria
- Octopus
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Periplaneta is commonly known as a cockroach, and it has an open circulatory system. In an open circulatory system, the circulatory fluid (hemolymph) is not confined to vessels but bathes the body's tissues directly.
So, the correct option is (B): Periplaneta

- The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) with thickness \(d/2\) and \(d/2\) respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If \(K_1 = 1.25 K_2\), the value of \(K_2\) is :

Concepts Used:
The Respiratory System
Human Respiratory System is a compound biological system of organs and tissues that helps in gaseous exchange. The system includes airways, lungs, and blood vessels. Its core function is to introduce oxygen and expel carbon dioxide from the body. The atmospheric air is continuously pumped in and out through a system of pipes which are called the conducting airways. There are a great number of muscles and blood vessels involved in the whole process of respiration.
Features of Human Respiratory System:
- The respiratory system is essential for inhalation of oxygen and transportation of the same to the different parts of the body where it is used for cellular respiration.
- The design of the lungs is created in a manner that helps in gaseous exchange in an efficient manner. The other parts of the respiratory system such as the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, and bronchi help in the process of bringing in oxygen to the lungs and taking carbon dioxide out of it.
- There is an arrangement of muscles such as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles that aid in the process of human respiration.
