The flow of blood in the capillaries is controlled by structures called precapillary sphincters. These structures are located between arterioles and capillaries and contain muscle fibers that allow them to contract. When the sphincters are open, blood flows freely to the capillary beds of body tissue. When the sphincters are closed, blood is not allowed to flow through the capillary beds. Fluid exchange between the capillaries and the body tissues takes place at the capillary bed. 02
The main muscle of a bivalve is called the adductor muscle, and is also used to hold the shell halves together. When the bivalve s adductor muscles relax, the ligament causes the valves to open. Most species are also equipped with locking teeth or sockets beneath the ligament to prevent lateral slippage.ther ancient bivalves appear to have a double set of gills. The second sets of gills actually arise from a folding of the single gill. This is the case in the Filibranchia and Eulamellibranchia, where the gills have also taken over the function of obtaining food.
