Zoo lab 5/6 Flashcards
Positional anatomy
anterior/posterior (head to butt)
dorsal/ventral (back to front)
medal/lateral (middle to outer)
How to ID male vs female pig
Females have genital papilla ventral/anterior to the anus
Males have two posterior scrotal sacs and a ventral urogenital orifice just posterior to the umbilical cord
Salivary glands and oral cavity (9)
Parotid gland - long gland that is spongy
Mandibular gland - much more compact glandular tissue anterior to the parotid gland
Oral cavity - mouth
Tongue - self-explanatory
Soft palate/Hard Palate - hard is anterior to the soft
Glottis - opening to the trachea
Epiglottis - cover to the glottis when food bolus comes near it
Esophagus - leads to the stomach
Eustachian tube - two slits on lateral sides of the nasopharynx
Thoracic region (7)
Pleural cavity - contains the right and left lung
Pericardial cavity - contains the heart
Thymus - part of the lymph system that produces T lymphocytes and is glandular in nature, around the trachea
Larynx - anterior to the trachea (voice box)
Thyroid gland - reddish-brown endocrine gland
Trachea - windpipe with cartilaginous rings
Esophagus - food pipe that leads to the stomach and rests left near the trachea
Abdominal region and digestive system (11)
Coelom - body cavity that contains the two regions
Peritoneal cavity - abdominal cavity separated by the diaphragm
Pleural cavity - surrounds the lungs
Pericardial cavity - contains the heart
Gall bladder - underneath the liver, it is green
Liver - large tissue in the right side of the body, above the stomach
Stomach - sac attached to the esophagus
Small intestine - duodenum (first few cm past the stomach), jejunum (follows the duodenum) , ileum (slightly thick and green)
Colon - large intestine - cecum (finger-like pouch), spiral colon (pretty obvious), descending colon - leading to the rectum, then the anus
Pancreas - glandular tissue attached to the small intestine
Spleen - narrow organ to the left of the peritoneal cavity
Human torso
Know all the digestive structures on it, parotid/mandibular gland, and the appendix
Shark
Liver, stomach, small intestine, pancreas, gills, heart, aorta, gastric artery, anterior intestinal vein
Frog
Liver, stomach, small intestine, pancreas, lungs, ventricle, right atrium, aorta
Urinary system for both male/female pigs
Kidney - ureter - urinary bladder - urethra -> penis or urogenital sinus -> urogenital orifice
Male reproductive system
Within the scrotal sac lies a testis -> epididymis -> ductus deferens (within the spermatic cord) –> seminal vesicles –> urethra -> penis -> urogenital orifice
Dorsal to the urethra is the bulbourethral gland (prostate in humans)
Female reproductive system
Uterus -> coelom/osteum -> oviduct -> horn of the uterus -> body of the uterus -> vagina -> urogenital sinus -> urogenital orifice
genital papilla is the defining characteristic
What kind of circulatory system does a pig have?
Closed circulatory system - blood is contained within their vessels
4 chambers of the heart and the canal between them and what is the heart in?
left/right atrium & ventricle
foramen ovale
within the pericardial sac
Venous system from the precaval to head, shoulder, forearm
Precaval vein -> innominate vein -> internal jugular (head), external jugular (head), subscapular vein (shoulder), axillary vein (forearm)
Vein of the heart
Coronary vein, on the hearts ventral surface
