Corn and beans
34
Herbivores
``` Eat autotrophs (plants) Eg: deer, cattle, geese ```
35

Eat other animals | Eg:lion, flycatcher, spider
36

41
Flamingo is a _____ feeder
Filter
42
Lizards eat _____ only
Insects
43
4 stages of food processing
Ingestion Digestion Absorption Elimination
44
Ingestion
Act of eating
45
Digestion
Breaking down large molecules into small ones. | Small molecules=monomers that are absorbable by body
46
Proteins--> Polysaccharides--> Nucleic acids--> Fat-->
Amino acids Monomers Nucleotides Glycerol+fatty acids
47
1st step of digestion
Chewing-many organisms | Birds-gizzard
48
Enzymatic hydrolysis
Addition of water to break down amino acid bonds
49
Absorption
Monomers move from digestive tract -->bloodstream
50
Elimination
Voiding of I digested material
51
Small intestine-first 25 cm=___ | Absorption____
Duedem (breakdown) | Jejunum, ilium
52
Mammalian digestive systems
``` Oral cavity Stomach Small int. Pancreas Large int. ```
53
Oral cavity-begins...
Begins physical and chemical digestion Amylase-glycoprotein Saliva-includes mucin Tongue-forms bolus, initiates swallowing
54
Trachea--> | Esophagus-->
Lungs | Stomach
55
Stomach
``` Stores food, initiates major digestion Lined by granular epithelium Churns 2-4x/min Breaks up plant/animal tissue Begins enzymatic hydrolysis of proteins ```
56
HCl+pepsinogen-->pepsin
Breaks up peptide bonds
57
Small int.
6 m long, surface area of tennis court Site of most enzymatic hydrolysis and nutrient absorption 80% of food goes for nutrients
58
Pancreas
Exocrine, digest-bicarbonate | Endocrine
59
Large int.
Cecum-pouch @LI-SI junction Appendix-finger like projection from cecum. Main function water absorption Ecoli-bacteria in LI
60
Invertebrates-gastrovascular cavity or ____
Open circulatory
61
Vertebrates-cardiovascular system
Heart-1 or 2 atria Pump: atrium -receive blood returning to heart, thin walled 1 or 2 ventricles pump blood away from heart Arteries-take blood away from heart Veins
62
Cardiac cycle
Pumps blood, when relaxed-fills w blood Contraction phase-systole Relaxation-diastole
63
Sinoatrial node
Self excitable, specialized muscle cells, pacemaker tissue
64
Atrioventricular rods
Relay center
65
Autonomic nervous system
Sympathetic (-) Parasympathetic (+) -SA node
66
endocrine control
adrenal gland-synthesizes and releases epinephrne (+) heart rate
67
structural differences-arteries and veins
arteries-thick walled, elasticity maintains presure when heart relaxes vein-have valves that allow blood to flow only toward heart
68
blood pressure
blood as a fluid, under pressure
69
blood pressure upon contraction/relaxation
systolic pressure/diastolic pressure
70
Healthy resting human heart rate
120mmHg/70mmHg
71
Blood returns to the heart via 3 mechanisms
1-smooth muscle peristasis 2-skeletal muscle contraction 3-change in pressure in thoracic cavity assoc. w/ breathing

76
Osmoregulation-water balance and waste disposal
management of body water + solute connected process-waste disposal -esp nitrogenous wastes
77
Ammonia Urea Uric Acid toxic to less toxic
Ammonia-->urea-->uric acid
78
Osmoconformer
