muscle with four little rooms or chambers inside Down the middle is a sturdy wan that seals an upstairs and a downstairs chamber on each ride Valves and trap-doors connect the heart to large tubes that carry the blood in and odt All the parts work together to do four different jobs They collect fresh Mood from the lungs and collect used blood that has circulated around the body They pump used blood to the lungs for fresh oxygen and pump fresh Mood around the body again An octopus must also refresh his blood and keep it circulating But he cannot breathe air because he lives under water So instead of lungs he has a pair of feather gills deep inside his body Gills work somewhat like lungs but they must take their-oxygen from the water If the octopus had a four-chambered heart he would need only one to keep his Mood circulating but instead has three simple little hearts to do the Job One is placed near each gill These two collect used blood then each pumps this Mood through one of the gills There it gives up its waste con bon dioxide and takes fresh oxygen This fresh blood goes to the third heart and this one pumps it into a network of branching blood vessels' This network leads the used blood back to the two little gill bouts and back it goes to the gills and on to the non-stop circulation through the body The wonderful human heart does all these chores together It pumps and pauses in double beats each pump sending used blood from the right side to the lungs and fresh Mood from the left side to pulse around the body As it pauses used Mood returns and fills the right side and fresh blood from the lungs flows' in to fill foe chambers on the left side Your one heart works better than the three separate hearts in an octopus Boa constrictor contracts CUMBERLAND

the wind because he has a mighty strong heart while dogs also need strong hearts to keep on the go These busy animals have hearts like ours and one per person is enough to do the work The octopus however is not a very busy character so very surprising to learn he has three hearts Many people think all ani- mals have just one heart apiece But a great many creatures have hearts that are very different from ours and a lot of them have more than one For example the shy little earthworm has 10 tiny hearts to pump his blood around his body The octopus and his kinfolk have three little hearts to keep the blood circulating Naturally there is a reason why they need more Qian one Their little hearts are very simple and it takes several of them to do all the work dime by one heart like yours
