BotZoo Test 4 Flashcards
organization of animal body
cells, tissue, organs, organ system
four groups of tissue:
- epithelial tissue
- connective tissue
- muscle tissue
- nervous tissue
epithelial tissue
- cover body, body cavities, form membranes
- to protect
- controls passage of substances inside and outside of the body
examples of epithelial tissue
- simple squamous
- simple cuboidal
- stratified squamous
- stratified cuboidal
endocrine
secretion of substances in body
ex: hormones
exocrine
secretion of substances outside of body
ex: saliva, sweat, sebaceous glands (oil), mammory glands
connective tissue
- loose connective tissue
- fibrous connective tissue
- adipose tissue
- cartilage
- bone
- blood
loose connective tissue
- collagen
- attach membranes (epithelial tissue) to other tissues
fibrous connective tissue
- lots of collagen
- tendon/ ligament
tendon
attaches muscle to bone
ligament
attaches bone to bone
andipose tissue
- fat
- storage of energy
- insulation
- no collagen
cartilage
- chrondricytes–>collagen
- support
- shock absorber
- ex: nose, ear, end of bone, between vertebrae
bone
- calcium phosphate
- movement
- protection
blood
- plasma
- erythrocytes
- leukocytes
plasma
liquid part of blood: water, vitamins, proteins, sugar, salt, hormones
erythrocytes
red blood cells: transports oxygen
-hemoglobin
leukocytes
white blood cells: fights pathogens
muscle tissue
- skeletal muscle
- cardiac muscle
- smooth muscle
skeletal muscle
- striated (striped)
- voluntary control
- movement
cardiac muscle
- striated
- involuntary control
- contraction of the heart
smooth muscle
- nonstriated
- involuntary control
- in organs, intestines, blood vessels, bladder
- movement of substances
nervous tissue
- neurons- send signals
- glial cells- protect neurons and nourishment
organs
two or more tissue type that function together
organ system
a number of organs that are going to carry out a particular function
ex: integumentary system- skin, hair, nails
epidermis
stratified squamous epithelial tissue
dermis
- connective tissue
- muscle
- nerves
- blood vessels
- sweat gland
- sebaceous gland (oil)
hypodermis
- adipose tissue
- innate immunity- keeps pathogens out
why skin protects
- acidic (reduced pH)
- physical barrio
- relatively dry
- normalflora (no space for pathogens)
- regulates temp
- constriction- cold: contain heat –>shiver
homeostasis
stable internal environment
negative feedback
change in internal environment conditions- reverse the change
hypothalamus
send signals down to muscles
positive feedback
change in internal conditions- amplify the change
oxytosin
release signal
ectothermic
obtain body heat from external environment
