<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In reptiles, the [[ventricular septum]] of the heart is incomplete and the [[pulmonary artery]] is equipped with a [[sphincter muscle]]. This allows a second possible route of blood flow. Instead of blood flowing through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, the sphincter may be contracted to divert this blood flow through the incomplete ventricular septum into the left ventricle and out through the [[aorta]]. This means the blood flows from the capillaries to the heart and back to the capillaries instead of to the lungs. This process is useful to [[ectothermic]] (cold-blooded) animals in the regulation of their body temperature.</div>FuzzyBot
