mini quiz 2 Flashcards
Why do fish and shellfish similar symptoms for pathogen and parasite invasions? (Theme)
They have ‘limited’ responses.
Do not make a diagnosis on ____ _____ alone. (Theme)
visible symptoms
what is the function of skin for salmonids?
protection, salt balance (osmoregulation), mucous cells, scales.
what are the functions of gills?
gas exchange, salt and acid balance, many blood vessels.
ACTUALLY DO THIS:
quickly run through where organs are on a salmonid
- nostril. -stomach
- brain -liver
- spinal cord -heart
- swim bladder -kidney
- dorsal fin -gills
- adipose -intestine
- caudal fin -gonad
- anal fin -pelvic fin
- lateral line -anus
- urnary bladder
function of a liver
- process nutrients, bile production and blood filtering via network of blood vessels.
- oil and fat storage
function of a spleen
blood filtering, maintenance of immune system cells. (haematopoietic tissue)
function of stomach and intestine
digest and absorb nutrients, process wastes, large surface area, pyloric cecae
function of the swimbladder
physoclistous vs physostomous
- buoyancy
- float w/o using energy
- clis= closed. rete mirabla
- stom= open. gulp air
rete mirabla
a dense network of vessels that allow gases to exchange from blood to air bladder
functions of a kidney
- urine production, salt balance
- blood cell formation, hormones and blood filtering
- head, mid and posterior
hyper=
hypo=
iso=
per=more
po=less
iso=same
marine fish are hypo/hyper?
fw fish are hypo/hyper?
M=HYPO (b/c h20=hyper) loss of h20
FW=HYPER (b/c h20 = hyper) gain of h20
who gulps h20, who pees? Marine and FW fishes
M=gulps
FW=pees
water always flows from hypo to hyper, or hyper to hypo
hypo to hyper
LOOK AT A SHELLFISH. DO THIS NOW. NAME THE FOLLOWING THINGS WITH JER OR SOMEONE.
- mouth -shell
- mantle -hinge area
- gut -coelom
- heart -adductor muscle
- anus -excurrent siphon
- water flow -incurrent siphon
- gill -mantle cavity
- foot -palp
- mouth
what are the oldest parts of a shellfish? what is this area called?
umbo and hinge. dorsal.
What part of the shellfish is the anterior?
where the notch is
what sort of circulatory system does a shellfish have?
open
what are the gills used for on a shellfish?
feeding. not respiration
What organs contain hematopoietic tissue in fish?
spleen. LIVER? ASK JER
Compare and contrast the osmoregulatory challenges (and solutions) of a sablefish vs a white sturgeon.
Sable fish= Marine. Hypotonic. gulps water for H20, osmotic water loss from gills + body parts. excrete salt in urine, small pee amount.
Sturgeon= FW. Hypertonic. absorbs water thru osmoregulation. Pees often b/c of excess water. uptake of salt ions from gills.
Do shellfish have a back?
yup. Umbo/hinge area
What is the role of the head kidney? Posterior kidney?
FIND THESE ANSWERS. PROBABLY ON EXAM.
what is the role of blood?
probably O2 transport. see what others say
Does a fish w 2 heads have a disease?
Possibly, or genetic, or development abnormality.
What is the role of each in shellfish?
- adductor muscle
- hinge
- gills
- siphons
- AM=
- Hinge= mobility of shell
- gills= nutrition intake
- siphons= water movement in/out of shellfish. DOUBLE CHECK THIS.
Define Stress
- The response of an organism to maintain normal function as a result of some chemical or physical force.
- This response often places a high demand (energetically) on the organism, resulting in a weakened state.
