Lesson 6: Body Systems / Animal Survival Flashcards
Main system in charge of gas exchange
Respiratory System
- inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide
BREATHING
- use of oxygen to breakdown sugar (glucose)
RESPIRATION
- a spongy air-filled organ
LUNGS
specialized organs for fish
GILLS-
Nose - Mouth - Pharynx - Larynx
Pharynx - Throat
Upper respiratory Tract
Voice Part (Upper respiratory Tract)
Larynx - Voice Part
Trachea - Bronchi - Bronchioles - Alveoli
Bronchi - Bronchioles - Small parts - Alveoli - Gas
Lower Respiratory Tract
Two types of circulatory system
Open and Closed circulatory system
Presence of hemolymph (a type of fluid for open ended vessels)
⁃ Open-ended vessels
⁃ Mostly invertebrates
Open Circulatory System
⁃ Blood is separated from the interstitial fluid
⁃ Arteries, veins, and capillaries
⁃ Complex
Closed Circulatory System
in charge of the circulation throughout the body
Circulatory system
pumps blood throughout the body
heart
Two classification of the heat chamber
Atria and Ventricles
Ventricles: ___________ atria: receive blood
pump blood
55% of the blood
Plasma
Leukocytes or Platelets are only _% of the blood
1%
Leukocytes or Platelets are only _% of the blood (WBC)
1%
Distribute important Substances around the body through arteries and ventricles
RBC - erythrocyte
Destroy pathogens
Leukocytes WBC
Repair wounded body tissues
Thrombocytes - Platelets
- pump oxygenated blood away from the heart (Oxygenated)
Arteries
bring blood towards heart (Deoxygenated)
Veins
connect arteries and veins
Capillaries -
(Deoxygenated) Vena Cava - Tricuspid Valve - Right Ventricle - Pulmonic Valve - Pulmonary Artery - Lungs (Oxygenated)- Pulmonary Vein - Heart - Left Atrium - Mitral Valve - Left Ventricle - Aortic Valve - Aorta - Whole body.
