chapter 11-respiratory system Flashcards
what is the function of the respiratory/circulatory systems
deliver oxygen to cells and remove wastes
gas exchange occurs by
passive diffusion
movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentraion
passive diffusion
three things needed for effective passive diffusion
increased surface area
decreased distance of diffusion
moist skin
move external medium in/out of organism for gas exchange
respiratory pump
delivery of oxygen to tissue, removal of carbon dioxide and other wastes
respiration
gas exchange between environment and blood
external respiration
gas exchange between blood and body tissues
internal respiration
moving medium across gas exchange surface
ventilation
cessation of ventilation
apnea
flow of water in fish
unidirectional flow into buccal cavity via mouth and over gills out gill openings
lung ventilation
bidirectional flow
water breathing structures
gills
associated with the pharyngeal slits and gill pouches
internal gills
internal gills are covered by this in sharks and this in bony fish
interbrachial septum
operculum
protrude from brachial region into environmental water
external gills
internal sacs filled with gas
gas bladder
gas bladder connected to the digestive tube
pneumatic duct
where does gas come from to get into gas bladder
blood
gas bladder functions
buoyancy and gas exchange
difference in location of swim bladder vs. lung
sb is dorsal to digestive tube
l is ventral to digestive tube
air breathing structures that are elastic
lungs
where to the lungs arise from
ectodermal outpocketing off pharynx
passages between lungs and outside air
non-exchange space
