Vedclass · Answer

(B) neurogenic heart is a type of heart where the heartbeat is initiated by nerve impulses generated by a ganglion (a cluster of nerve cells) located near the heart. This is a characteristic feature of most invertebrates,such as annelids and arthropods. In contrast,vertebrates (like humans,rats,and rabbits) possess a myogenic heart,where the heartbeat is initiated by specialized muscle cells (the sinoatrial node). Therefore,the correct option is $B$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$a$. Superior Vena Cava	$p$. Carries deoxygenated blood towards the lungs
$b$. Inferior Vena Cava	$q$. Carries oxygenated blood away from the lungs
$c$. Pulmonary Artery	$r$. Brings deoxygenated blood from lower body parts to the right atrium
$d$. Pulmonary Vein	$s$. Brings deoxygenated blood from upper body parts to the right atrium
