Anaerobic Respiration
Fermentation
No oxygen used
No mitochondria
Two types of anaerobic respiration
Alcohol and Lactic Fermentation
What organic molecule is broken down in a series of enzyme controlled reactions during respiration?
Glucose
Yeast cells carry out
Alcohol fermentation
Animal and some bacteria carry out
Lactic acid fermentation
Aerobic respiration
Requires the presence of oxygen and enzymes
Anaerobic phase

Hydra wastes
Eliminates into water, ammonia
Nephridium
Grasshopper wastes
Urea, malphigian tubes
Lungs
Excrete co2 and water vapor from aerobic respiration
Liver
Produces urea from excess amino acids
Skin
Excretion of urea, salts, water
Kidneys
Maintain homeostasis by regulating water content of the blood
Regulates blood volume
Maintain PH
Removes wastes
Kidney filters out

What gets absorbed back into the loop of henle-
Amino acids Sugars Water Vitamins Amino acids
Functions of the lymphatic system-
Return excess fluid to the blood
Absorb fats at villi (lacteals)
Defend against disease
Lymph
Fluid
Lymph nodes
Contain white blood cells to filter lymph
What groups of nodules that purify lymph?
Tonsils
Adenoids
Peyers Patches
Spleen
Keeps body fluids in balance
Contains white blood cells/ fight infection
Destroys old and damaged cells
Thymus gland
T lymphocytes mature
Bone marrow
Produces blood cells / B cells mature
Vaccinations
Exposure to harmless version of pathogen
Antibodies
Proteins made by B cells that tag invaders in the blood so macrophages can eat them
B cells
White blood cells that attack invaders in the blood
Memory B cells
Remember invader
Acquired immunity
Develops during lifetime
