Counting animals: eyes, ears, hearts, trunks, tentacles, teeth, sentence 4
An octopus has 3 hearts: two small gill hearts push its blue, copper-based blood through the gills, and one main heart pumps it round the body; copper-based blood carries oxygen less well than our red blood, so the extra pumps help.
Who acts: octopus, two small gill hearts, one main heart, based blood, extra pumps · What happens: have, push, base, pump, carry, help · To what, where: 3 hearts, blue based blood, gills, octopus, oxygen
