Question 4 of 25 Use the diagram to answer the question.     Some organisms use a single loop circulatory system such as the one shown. How is the transport of gases in such a design different from that in the circulatory systems found in humans?   A. The transport of gases is more efficient because oxygenated blood mixes with deoxygenated blood.   B. The transport of gases is less efficient because oxygenated blood mixes with deoxygenated blood.   C. The transport of gases is more efficient because the distance between the heart and the capillaries is shorter.   D. The transport of gases is less efficient because the distance between the heart and the capillaries is shorter.
