All animals face same challenges
nourish themselves
exchange gases (O2,CO2)
void metabolic waste, move
body plan-product of evolution
all animal cells must be bathed in ___ solution
aqeuous; maintains plasma membrane and cell integrity
Structure often belies
function
4 main tissue types-MENC
muscle
Epithial
nervous
connective
Epitheal tissue-sheets of…
sheets of tightly packed cells, covers body, lines organs and cavities
Simple epitheal has how many cell layers?
1
Stratified epitheal has how many cell layers?
2
Epitheal Cell Shapes
cuboidal
columnar-lines intenstine: for secretion, absorbtion
squamous-often @exposed surface, rapid diffusion, leaky
Connective tissue
FABBLC
fibrous Adipose Blood Bone Loose connective cartilage
Loose connective tissue
collagenous, elastic fibers, holds organs in position
cartilage connective tissue
collagenous fibers in flexible acellular matrix, strong, flexible (nose, ears)
Fibrous connective tissue
nonelastic, tendons, ligaments
Adipose connective tissue
specialized loose connective, fat droplets 1 per cell, food storage, pad, insulation
Bone connective tissue
mineralized connective tissue, hard not brittle. Osteen-inside is central canal-includes blood vessels, nerves
Blood connective tissue
liquid, rapid transport. red blood cells-platelets
Muscle Tissue
SSCN
skeletal
smooth
cardiac
nervous
skeletal muscle tissue
Sarccomer, muscle, fiber
most abundant. sarccomer-contractile unit
voluntary body movement
muscle-bundle of long cells (fibers)
fiber-bundle of myofibrils
Cardiac muscle tissue
contractible-wall of heart, striated
intercolated disk-passes signals cell, syncronize heartbeat
smooth muscle tissue
lacks striations, found in gut wall, urinary bladder, arteries, other internal organs, involuntary movements-stomach
Nervous muscle tissue
Nerve cell (neurons) fundamental unit of nervous system -dendrites
Physiological variables-managed at close limits
T6
pH
Salt concentration in face of env. Fluctuation
2 strategies for managing the internal environment
Regulation
Conformation
Regulation
Internal control mechanisms used to regulate internal change in a factor
Conformation
Animal is a conformer for an env. variable if it’s internal condition conforms to changes in the env. factor
