Solution

The correct option is B Crocodile
Among reptiles the heart is 3- chambered but the crocodile is an exception where the heart is 4- chambered but not completely divided. The left and right aorta are connected by a hole called the foramen of Panizza. The frog heart has 3 chambers: two atria and a single ventricle. Sharks have a two-chambered heart, with an atrium (also called the auricle) and a ventricle. Lizard also has three chambered heart.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
