Solution

The correct option is B 13
The cockroach has empty space in the body which is known as sinus. The three sinuses are pericardial, perivisceral and pericardial sinus. It lies in the pericardial sinus of the haemocoel. Each chamber of the heart receives oxygenated blood from the dorsal sinus through one pair of a slit like openings called as Ostia. Hence, option B is correct.
