Lecture 17. B Flashcards
Exchange with surroundings cell level?
nutrients transported through the cell– body cells
waste products excreted.
what are some special organs for the respiratory system
Body surface - Gills Tracheal system Lungs
which animals do do gas exchange across the body surface
Most animals that do gas exchange across the body surface are simple aquatic animals
which organ for respiratory system is the most common
Tracheal system
Components of a Cardiovascular System
A circulatory fluid (ex. blood)
A muscular pump (heart)
System of tubes (blood vessels)
In general, animals with high/low? metabolic rates have more complex cardiovascular systems & more powerful hearts than animals with high/low? metabolic rates
In general, animals with high metabolic rates have more complex cardiovascular systems & more powerful hearts than animals with low metabolic rates
Single Circulation
Single ventricle pumps blood to gills Blood in gills pick up O2/ gets rid of CO2 O2-rich blood to body cells O2-poor blood via veins to atrium Atrium → ventricle gills ↓ body tissues ↓ Heart
example of animals with Single Circulation
fishes, turtle
Double circulation
Heart ↓ lungs ↓ Heart ↓ tissues
examples of animals with double circulation
Amphibians
Reptiles
Birds
Mammals
function of valves in the heart?
VALVES PREVENT BACKFLOW AND ARE PRESENT IN THE HEART AND THE VEINS
WITH EVERY HEART BEAT, THE VALVES OPEN AND CLOSE SO THE AIR DOES NOT GO BACKWARD.
Which type of gas exchange will be most common in animals on land
tracheal system
Which type of gas exchange will be most common in animals in water
gills
almost all plants are autotrophic/heterotrophic?
autotrophic
almost all animals are autotrophic/heterotrophic?
heterotrophic
