Introduction

Anatomy – The study of structure of organism

Physiology – The study of the functions of an

organism’s anatomical features Bioenergetics –

How organisms obtain, process and use their energy resources

Tissue

Four Major Types: Epithelial, muscle, connective, nervous

Epithelial Tightly packed cells (very little space in b/t) Cover outside of body Line organs and cavities Function: barrier against injury, microbes

and fluid loss Classified by: # of layers, shape

# of layers – simple and stratified Shape – cuboidal, columnar, squamous

Page 8: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Tissue, cont.

Connective Function: bind and support other

tissue types NOT tightly packed Three kinds of protein fibers:

CollagenousElasticReticular

Major types of connective tissue:Loose, adipose, fibrous, cartilage, bone

and blood

Organs and organ systems

Systems: Digestive Circulatory Respiratory Immune/lymphatic Excretory

Endocrine Reproductive Nervous Integumentary Skeletal Muscular

Page 14: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Energy

Two ways to obtain energy: Heterotroph Autotroph

Bioenergetics: The flow of energy through an

animal Limits animal’s behavior, growth,

repair, regulation and reproduction Determines how much food an

animal must consume

Page 15: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Energy sources

Animals are heterotrophs Obtain energy through enzymatic

hydrolysis (aka – Cellular Rs)Use food, oxygen to make energy molecules and carbon dioxide (waste product)

Most of energy molecules are made into ATPProduction and use of ATP generates heatAnimal continuously gives off heat

This release of heat helps to regulate internal body temp

Page 16: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Metabolic rate

Def – amount of energy animal uses in a given amount of time

Measured in calories (C) Can be determined:

Monitoring an animal’s rate of heat loss using a calorimeter

Measuring oxygen consumption Can use an EKG or heart monitor to measure

Measuring carbon dioxide output

Page 17: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Influences on Metabolic Rate

1) Size Amt of energy to maintain each gram of

weight is inversely related to size Small animals = MORE energy per gram of

weight 2) Activity

More activity = more energy needed 3) Others

Size, sex, age, body/environmental temps

Page 18: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Homeostasis

Def - How an animal maintains stable internal environmental conditions Such as: temp, heart rate,

metabolism “Steady state” Two schools/groups of

animals: Regulators Conformers

Page 19: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Regulators and Conformers

Regulators – use internal control mechanisms to moderate internal changes (despite external fluctuations) Ex: freshwater and saltwater fish

Conformers –allow their internal environment to vary with external fluctuations Ex: lizards

No organism is SOLELY one or another Animals maintain homeostasis while being

BOTH a regulator AND conformer

Page 20: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Homestatic mechanisms

Three functional control mechanisms: 1) Receptor

Detects change 2) Control center/Integrator

Processes change and sends response to effector

3) EffectorChanges internal conditions

Ex: a house thermostat

Page 21: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Positive and Negative Feedback Positive and Negative Feedback Loops

Page 22: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Thermoregulation Def - The process by which

animals maintain an internal body temperature

Most biological body processes are VERY sensitive to changes in body temp

Two strategies: Endotherm Ectotherm

Page 23: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Endotherm Animals that internally control body

temp Ex:

Mammals, birds, few reptiles, some fish, most insect species

High metabolic rate Maintain high and very stable internal

temp Ex: Humans – 98.6o F

Source of heat: metabolic heat (ATP)

Page 24: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Endotherm, cont. Advantages:

Can perform rigorous activities for longer periods of time

Elaborate circulatory systems (division of blood)

Elaborate respiratory system (oxygen exchange)

Maintain stable body temp Disadvantages:

Very “expensive” in energy use High metabolic rate

Need to consume much more food than ectotherm

Page 25: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Ecototherm Animals who gain most of heat

from environment Ex:

Reptiles, amphibians, most invertebrates, fishes

Low metabolic rate Regulate body temp by behavioral

mechanisms Hibernation Basking in sun Shade seeking

Page 26: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.
Page 27: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Modes of Heat Exchange

Ectotherms and endotherms exchange heat using the same processes

Four processes to do so: Radiation Evaporation Convection Conduction

Page 28: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.
Page 29: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Balance of Heat Exchange

Ultimate goal: To balance heat loss with heat gain

Five adaptations help animals to meet this goal:1) Insulation2) Circulatory Adaptations3) Cooling by Evaporative Heat Loss

4) Behavioral Responses5) Adjusting Metabolic Heat Production

Page 30: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Energy Conservation

Animals often times encounter periods of time that challenge their heat balancing abilities Ex: extreme temps; food is scarce

Torpor – a physiological state in which animal activity is low and metabolism decreases Enables animals to save energy

while avoiding dangerous conditions

Page 31: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Energy Conservation, cont.

Hibernation: Long-term torpor Adaptation to winter temp and lack of

food Vertebrate endotherms hibernate Body temps decline Saves energy and metabolic rate drops Triggered by shorter days (less daylight)

and slight temperature decreases Ex: bears, ground squirrelsBear Hibernating

(1:00)

Other animals hibernating

Page 32: C HAPTER 40: A NIMAL F ORM AND F UNCTION. Essential Knowledge  2.a.1 – All living systems require constant input of free energy.  2.c.1 – Organisms.

Energy Conservation, cont.

Estivation: Summer torpor Adaptation to long periods of high

temps and scarce water supply Slow metabolism and inactivity Triggered by long days Ex: frogs, snails, salamanders
