Respiratory System Flashcards
(46 cards)
Where is the respiratory system derived from?
The endoderm
Functions of the respiratory system
Gas exchange, cooling, buoyancy, external respiration, internal respiration
Different types of gas exchange of animals
Skin in amphibian
Mouth/PHARYNX in amphibians
Gills in fish and amphibians,
Lungs in some fish and tetra pods
CLOACA in some turtles
Cooling
Sweat, BUCCOPHARYNGEAL respiration, dog, panting
Buoyancy
Air bladder/lungs
external respiration
Exchange of O2 and CO2 between environment and blood
Internal respiration
Exchange of O2 and CO2 between blood and tissues
unidirectional airflow
When the air enters the mouth but does not go out of the mouth and X excretes in a different way
Bidirectional/tidal flow
When air enters his mouth and exits the mouth
What is cutaneous respiration?
Respiration via skin
Evolution of ventilation mechanism
Dual pump, BUCCAL pump, modified BUCCAL pump – these were all mostly fish some amphibians
Aspiration pump in reptiles
Aspiration pump in mammals
What is BUCCAL pump?
Moves the floor of the mouth in a rhythmic manner
What are gas bladders?
Elongated sack filled with gas can be swim, bladder, or lungs
What is a swim bladder?
Gas bladder used to control buoyancy, typically found dorsal to the digestive track
What are lungs
Elastic bladder that lie within the body, use for everything. Typically ventral to digestive track and paired.
What is aspiration pump?
Move Erin by creating an area of low pressure… Movement of diaphragm
Describe LAMPREY gills
When feeding, VELAR tentacles cover the BRANCHIAL pouch. Water is expelled by restriction of the gill ADDUCTOR muscles. Freshwater passively enters upon recoil equals TIDAL Gill ventilation, which is unique to LAMPREYS. When free swimming gear ventilation is unidirectional
In a picture what is the hemi and HOLOBRANCH, respiratory unit/loop
Describe gill ventilation, and sharks
Give ventilation and sharks is dual BUCCAL pump draws water in and forces over gills. Larger sharks use ram ventilation.
Describe dual BUCCAL opercula pump in TELEOST
Inhalation the BUCCAL chamber expands in the OPERCULAR valve closes. During exhalation the BUCCAL chamber. Contracts in the OPERCULAR valve opens.
What type of exchange occurs during respiration?
Countercurrent exchange
Why is countercurrent exchange better?
Opposite direction, continues to encounter temperature difference, more heat is transferred
What type of exchange occurs in birds?
Cross current
What type of exchange occurs in fish?
Countercurrent
