anatomy
is biological form of an organism
physiology
is the biological functions an organism performs
animal form and function are correlated at all levels of organization: size and shape—
affect the way an animal interacts with its enviorment
animal form and function are correlated at all levels of organization: as animals increase in size—-
thicker skeletons are required for support
animal form and function are correlated at all levels of organization: properties of water—–
limit possible shapes for fast swimming animals
what must be exchanged across the cell membranes of animal cells?
materials such as nutrients, waste products, and gases must be exchanged across the cell membranes of animal cells
waste products:
feces- for digestive system, kidneys-urine
gases:
O2, CO2, N, H, HCO3(biocarbonate), PH (phosphorous)
what is rate of exchange?
is proportional to a cells surface
amount of exchange
material is proportional to a cells volume
characteristic of single celled organism?
living in water and has sufficient surface area to carry out all necessary gas exchange
single celled organism ex:
ameobas, paramecium, euglenas
characteristic of multicellular organism:
with a saclike body plan have body walls that are only two cells thick, facilitating diffusion of materials
multicellular organism ex:
hydra- exchanges gases thru the process of diffusion
tapeworms is a type of
type of parasitic flatworm
where do tapeworms live?
in human intestine by attaching themselves to the intestinal wall using a specialized structure called the scolex, which often has hooks and suckers
how do tapeworms absorb nutrients?
absorb nutrients directly from the host’s digested food within the intestine, as they lack a digestive system of their own
3 common types of tapeworms are:
whats the most common type of tapeworms?
taenia solium- found in pork
most animals are composed of specialized cells organized into—-
tissues
what do tissue make up?
organs, which together make up organ system and then make up organism
organs of digestive system:
emascular tube, esophogus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine/colon
accesory organs define:
means addition to the systems
