Homeostasis
|
Maintenance of constant internal environment in an organism
|
|
homeostasis
process
|
1. osmoregulation
2. excrete metabolic wastes
|
|
Osmoregulation
|
is the homeostatic control of the uptake and loss or water and solutes such as salt and other ions
|
|
water loss in terrestrial animals
|
evaporation, sweat, urination, defecation
|
|
water gain in terrestrial animals
|
salts , drinking and eating
|
|
water gain/loss in aquatic animals?
|
*Freshwater organisms excrete water, conserve ions.
*Marine species conserve water, excrete ions.
|
|
Excretion
|
*Removes metabolic waste
* Removes Ammonia(toxic)
|
|
Removal of ammonia in aquatic animals
|
Forms in cells and diffuses out into water
|
|
Removal of ammonia in terrestrial animals
|
Convert it to urea or uric acid
|
|
Osmoregulation Process
|
1.Filtration
2.Reabsorption
3.Secretion
4.Elimination
|
|
Metanephridium
|
a type of excretory tubule with internal openings called nephrostomes that collect body fluids and external openings called nephridiospores.
|
|
Protonephridium
|
An excretory system, such as the flame bulb system of flatworms, consisting of a network of tubes lacking internal openings.
|
|
Vertebrate kidney purpose's
|
1.osmoregulation
2.excrete
|
|
Nephron
|
-Nephron is functional unit of kidney
-Blood enters nephron by blood pressure in glomerulus and is filtered through Bowman’s capsule
-Fluid is called filtrate
-Water and small molecules pass into proximal tubule
-filtrate passes through loop of Henle, then distal
-filtrate empties in…
|
|
Homeostasis detailed steps
|
1.Filtration- Blood in glomerulus forces fluid into bowmans capsule. ECM acts as selective filter.
2.Reabsorption- takes back "good stuff" through proximal Tubule
3.Secretion of toxins from blood into filtrate(ammonia , toxins, drugs)
4.Loop of Henle- Adaptation for water retention (bi…

|
ADH
|
Antidiuretic Hormone
Vasopressin: controlls permeability
|
|
Cell Surface receptor
|
Signal Transduction
H20 soluble
|
|
intracellular receptor
|
regulation of gene expression
Lipid Soluble
|
|
Endocrine cells and glands
|
secrete hormones
|
|
Diuresis
|
increased urine production
|
|
ADH concentration high?
|
Collecting Duct permeability High
|
|
ADH concentration low
|
collecting duct permeability decreases
|
|
Less ADH released when?
and what happens?
|
*consume excess water
*Alcohol and caffeine (inhibit ADH release)
*and More urine produced
|
|
More ADh released when? and what happens?
|
* Excessive water loss
* osmolarity increases
*Water retained and returned to blood
|
|
Negative Feedback
|
Response to a change in a variable which reverses direction of the change. (set point = desired value)
example. Exercise produces heat ; exercise produces CO2)
|
|
Circulatory System (fluid transport system)
|
contains
1.BVS
2.Lymph system
purpose Respiration and excretion
|
|
Chambered heart components
|
Atrium
Ventricle
Arteries
Arterioles
Veins
Venules
Capillaries
|
|
Atrium
|
Receives Blood sends to Ventricle
|
|
Ventricle
|
Takes blood to respiratory surface and organs
|
|
Arteries & Arterioles
|
Takes blood away from heart
|
|
Veins and Venules
|
takes blood to heart
|
|
Capillaries
|
Sites of substance exchange
|
|
Circulation of fish
|
Single circuit
|
|
Circulation in Amphibians , reptiles and mammals
|
Double circulation
|
|
Heart
|
Pump cardian muscle

|
Contain hemoglobin.
carries oxygen
called erythrocytes.
|
|
Platelets

Phagocytes & specialized immune system cells
|
|
where are blood cells produced
|
in bone marrow
|
|
Sinoatrial node
|
Muscle tissue ; sets rate of contractions.
|
|
Hormones and nerves regulate what?
|
beat rate of heart
|
|
heart attack
|
myocardial infarction - death of cardiac muscle
|
|
stroke
|
death of nervous tissue in brain
|
|
2 types of reasons for strokes
|
Ischemic- Blockage
Hemorrhagic- Breakage
|
|
Atherosclerosis
|
chronic cardiovascular disease; plaque build up
|
|
plaques
|
block arteries can lead to heart attack
|
|
hypertension
|
(high blood pressure) promotes atherosclerosis and increases risk of heart attack and stroke
|
|
damage to vessel lining can trigger?
|
plaque formation
|
|
Low density Lipoproteins
|
