Themes

How do systems work together to achieve a shared function?

How do systems maintain homeostasis?

What’s the relationship between a system’s structure and function?

Page 3: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Objectives – SWBAT:

Know that complex organisms are comprised of organ systems, which are comprised of organs, which are comprised of tissues, which are comprised of cells.

Describe how feedback control can act to maintain homeostasis.

Page 4: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Feedback Control Homeostasis is often

maintained through the use of Feedback systems (or loops).

A feedback system uses the consequences of the process (too much or too little produced) to regulate the rate at which the process occurs Consists of a sensor, a

control center, and an effector pathway

Organization in Multi-cellular Organisms

1. Cell –smallest functional unit of life

2. Tissue – group of similar cells that perform a specific function

3. Organ – group of tissues that perform a general function

4. Organ System – group of organs that achieve a major bodily function

5. Organism

Page 9: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Tissue Types

Four major types of tissues:• Muscle: controls the internal movement of materials

in the body and external movements of body parts• Nervous: receives and transmits messages• Epithelial: covers internal and external organ

surfaces • Connective: holds organs in place and binds body

parts together

Page 10: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Body Cavities The organs and systems are housed in

compartments called body cavities to protect them and allow them to contract or expand as needed

Four major human body cavities Cranial: holds the brain Spinal: holds the spine and spinal cord Thoracic: Upper compartment in trunk of body—holds

the heart, esophagus, and respiratory system Abdominal: Lower compartment in trunk of body—

holds the digestive, reproductive, and excretory systems

Thoracic and abdominal cavities are separated by the diaphragm muscle

Page 11: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

11 Organ Systems

Page 12: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Objectives – SWBAT:

Identify the functions of 11 major human organ systems (nervous, endocrine, digestive, excretory/urinary, cardiovascular/circulatory, respiratory, muscular, skeletal, reproductive, lymphatic, integumentary).

Distinguish between the mechanical and chemical digestion of foodIdentify the organs of the digestive system, in the order that food passes through them, and their roles in processing food.

Explain the functions of the accessory organs of the

digestive system.

Page 13: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Digestive System

Structures: mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine

Accessory Structures (help digestion, but no food enters them): salivary glands, pancreas, liver, gallbladder

Functions: Acquiring nutrients

Converts food into simpler molecules that can be transported to body cells

Absorbs food molecules into bloodstream

Page 14: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Processes Ingestion

taking in food Digestion

mechanical digestion breaking up food into smaller pieces

chemical digestion breaking down food into molecules small

enough to be absorbed into cells Accomplished by enzymes

Absorption absorb nutrients across cell membranes

diffusion active transport

Elimination/Excretion undigested material passes out of body

intracellulardigestion

extracellulardigestion

Page 15: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Human digestive system

Page 16: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Mouth

Functions mechanical digestion (teeth) chemical digestion (saliva from salivary

glands) amylase enzyme

digests the polysaccharide starch

mucus protects soft lining of digestive system lubricates food for easier swallowing

buffers neutralize acid to prevent tooth decay

Page 17: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Swallowing (& not choking)

Pharynx Uppermost part of throat Epiglottis

flap of tissue in pharynx, closes pathway to respiratory or digestive system to ensure proper pathway for food

Esophagus Peristalsis

involuntary muscle contractions push food to stomach

Page 18: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

StomachFunctions

disinfect foodhydrochloric acid = pH 2

kills bacteria

food storagecan stretch to fit ~2L food

digests proteinpepsin enzyme

But the stomach is made out of protein!What stops the stomach from digesting itself?

mucus secreted by stomach cells protects stomach lining

Page 19: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Small intestine Functions: Digestion

Liver and pancreas secrete enzymes into small intestine

digest carbohydrates Enzymes from pancreas

digest proteins Enzymes from pancreas

digest lipids (fats) Bile from liver & enzymes from pancreas

Absorption Absorbs all three nutrient groups into bloodstream Nutrients move into body cells by:

Diffusion, active transport

Page 20: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Absorption in Small Intestines Absorption through villi & microvilli

finger-like projections of intestine wall, full of capillaries (blood vessels)

increases surface area for absorption

SMALL INTESTINES6 meters long,but can stretch

to cover a tennis court

Page 21: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Liver & Gall Bladder Liver produces bile, gallbladder only stores

it Bile digests lipids Liver also functions to filter toxins, drugs, and

dead blood cells from bloodstream

Page 22: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Function Re-absorbs water

You use ~9 liters of water per day in digestive juices if you don’t reabsorb water, death by

dehydration

> 90% of water re-absorbed If not enough water re-absorbed

Diarrhea (can be fatal) If too much water re-absorbed

constipation

Large intestines (colon)

Page 23: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

You’ve got company! Living in the large intestine is a

community of mutualistic bacteria E. coli

digest cellulose in fruits & vegetables

produce vitamins vitamin K & B vitamins

but generate gases byproducts of bacterial metabolism

hemoglobin and bone marrow.

Page 27: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Respiratory System

Structures: nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, lungs (alveoli)

Functions: Gas exchange

Exhale CO2 diffuses from

blood to alveoli, air pushed out

capillaries(circulatory system)

Page 33: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Breathing and Homeostasis

Homeostasis need to balance O2 in and CO2 out

For cellular respiration Exercise

breathe faster need more ATP, muscles conducting more

respiration

= bring in more O2 & remove more CO2

Disease poor lung or heart function = breathe faster

need to work harder to bring in enough O2 & remove CO2

Blood In describing circulation, blood is either:

Oxygenated (oxygen is bound to hemoglobin, not much CO2)

Deoxygenated (little oxygen, lots of CO2) (Deoxygenated blood is not blue!)

Page 42: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Objectives – SWBAT:

Identify the functions of 11 major human organ systems (nervous, endocrine, digestive, excretory/urinary, cardiovascular/circulatory, respiratory, muscular, skeletal, reproductive, lymphatic, integumentary).

Diagram the basic anatomy of a neuron and how neurons communicate.

Distinguish between the central and peripheral nervous system, and sensory vs motor neurons.

Explain the locations and functions of the three types of muscle. Differentiate between connective tissues: cartilage, tendon, and

ligament

Page 50: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Nervous System

Structures: brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves (sensory and motor)

Function: Communication and

control Coordinates functions

throughout the body in response to internal and external stimuli

Page 51: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Nervous system cells

dendrites

cell body

axon

synapse

Neuron = basic cell of nervous system

signal direction

signaldirection

Page 52: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Action potentials, electrical “messages,” travel down each neuron in one direction.

Neurons consist of 3 parts:• Dendrites – receive messages from other cells• Cell body – contains the nucleus and performs normal

cell metabolism to support cell• Axon – sends messages to other cells

Page 53: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Synapse

synapse

Synapse = junction between nerve cells 1st cell releases chemical

(neurotransmitter) to trigger action potential in the next cell

(FYI: psychoactive drugs affect nervous system by affecting neurotransmission at synapse)

Sending and Receiving Messages

Information Collection Sensory neurons– gather information about

what is happening in and around your body and send this information to the CNS for processing. Receptors detect changes inside and outside the body

example, receptors in your eyes detect light.

Delivering Orders Motor neurons– send impulses from the brain

and spinal cord to other systems. When muscles get impulses from motor neurons,

they respond by contracting example, motor neurons signal muscles around your eyes to

contract

Page 57: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Types of neuronssensory neuron(from senses)

interneuron(brain & spinal chord)

motor neuron(to muscle)

Page 58: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Simplest Nerve Circuit Reflex, or automatic response

signal only goes to spinal cord no higher level

processing = rapid response

advantage Fast, don’t need to

think or make decisions about blinking balance pupil dilation startle

Page 59: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Muscular System

Structures: Skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle

Functions: Movement

Works with skeletal system to produce voluntary movement

Helps circulate blood and move food through the digestive system

Page 60: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Three Types of Muscle: Skeletal: attached to bones by tendons;

responsible for voluntary bodily movement Smooth: controls digestion, breathing,

capillary width; involuntary Cardiac: heart muscle; involuntary

Page 61: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Muscles movement Muscles do work by

contracting contracting = shortening

move skeletal parts involves active transport, so

it requires ATP

tendons tough connective tissue,

connects bone to muscle

Page 62: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Voluntary muscles work in opposing pairs so when one muscle contracts, the other one relaxes

Example: When the bicep muscle (a flexor) contracts and the tricep muscle relaxes, the arm bends.

When the tricep muscle (an extensor) contracts and the bicep muscle relaxes, the arm straightens.

Voluntary Muscle Contractions

Page 63: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.
Page 64: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Skeletal SystemThe adult human body has approx. 206 bones organized into an internal framework called the skeleton

Structures: bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons

Functions: Structural support

Supports the body Protects internal organs

Allows movementStores mineral reserves (calcium)Provides a site for blood cell formation

Page 65: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Bone Structure

Bone = a solid network of cells and protein fibers that are supported by deposits of calcium. Compact bone forms the outside of bones. Dense,

calcium-rich, lined with canals carrying nerves & blood vessels.

Spongy bone forms the inside of bones. Less calcium, less dense.

Cavities within bones contain bone marrow produces red blood cells,

some white blood cells, and blood platelets.

FYI, teeth are not bones! Their anatomy is completely different.

Page 66: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Joints

Joints are where bones are joined together. Bones in immovable joints are

fused (ex: skull) Bones in moveable joints are

held together by ligaments. Unlike tendons, which connect

muscle to bone.

Cartilage covers the area of the bones that rub together when joints move, prevent bones from grinding.

Page 67: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Objectives – SWBAT:

Identify the functions of 11 major human organ systems (nervous, endocrine, digestive, excretory/urinary, cardiovascular/circulatory, respiratory, muscular, skeletal, reproductive, lymphatic, integumentary).

Identify the organs involved in removing non-gaseous waste from the bloodstream.

Recognize that the kidneys remove nitrogenous waste and excess water, and the liver filters toxic compounds from the bloodstream.

Know what lymph is. Explain the three lines of defense against pathogens, distinguishing between

specific and non-specific defenses. Explain what a hormone is and how one can act to maintain homeostasis. Give examples of different functions that hormones can regulate. Identify the pathways to fertilization taken by male and female gametes, in the

order that they pass through each structure. Compare and contrast the functions of the male and female reproductive

systems.

Page 68: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Integumentary System

Structures: skin, hair, nails, sweat glands, oil glands

Functions: Serves as a barrier against infection

and injury Provides protection against ultraviolet

radiation from the sun Helps to regulate body temperature Helps remove some waste

Page 69: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Close-up of Integumentary System

Body temperature regulation = sweat evaporation cools skin

Waste function = sweat contains excess salt, water

Page 70: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Excretory System

Structures: kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra

Functions: Eliminates waste products of

metabolism from the body Maintains homeostasis by

regulating the water content of the blood which controls blood volume, blood pH, and waste

Page 71: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

What liquid waste do we make?

Digesting protein makes ammonia nitrogen waste = ammonia = poison

H

CO2 + H2O

NH2 = ammonia

H

—C—|

Page 72: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Waste-laden blood enters the kidneys through the renal artery.

Urea, excess water, and other wastes are filtered out of the blood by the kidney and collected as urine.

Urine travels down the ureters, is stored in the bladder, and then is expelled from the body through the urethra.

How do the kidneys work?

Page 73: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Lymphatic SystemStructures: white blood cells, thymus,

spleen, lymph nodes, lymph vessels

Functions: Immune defense and fluid balance

Helps protect the body from disease Collects fluid lost from blood vessels

(lymph), cleans it, and returns it to the circulatory system

Page 74: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Lymph

Lymph = excess tissue fluid pale white, similar to blood

plasma, but with more fats and immune cells

seeps between cells, accumulating “junk” like bacteria, cell debris

Lymph vessel = carries lymph, like blood vessel

Lymph node = filters the “junk” from lymph

Page 75: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Why an immune system? Attack from the outside & inside

lots of organisms want you for lunch! we are a tasty vitamin-packed meal

cells are packages of proteins, carbohydrates & fats no cell wall

animals must defend themselves against invaders… viruses

HIV, flu, cold, measles, chicken pox, SARS bacteria

pneumonia, meningitis, tuberculosis fungi

yeast protists

amoeba, Lyme disease, malaria cancer cells

…but, must do so as efficiently as possible!

What’s forlunch?!

Page 76: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Immune System

Immune defenses may be non-specific or specific Non-specific = broad, defends against

many kinds of attackers Specific = targets one kind or a small

number of attackers

Three lines of defense…

Page 77: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

1st line: Physical Barriers

Non-specific External barriers

skin & mucus membranes

excretions Sweat, stomach acid,

tears, mucus, saliva

Lining of trachea:

Page 78: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

2nd line: Generalist responses Non-specific, internal defenses,

including: Patrolling white blood cells

attack invaders that get through the skin phagocyte cells

Reproductive SystemMale Structures: testes,

epididymis, vas deferens, urethra, penis

Female Structures: ovaries, Fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina

Functions: Reproduction

Produce gametes Males: deliver gametes to females Females: support developing

embryo

Page 89: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Structures Testes: Produce sperm and testosterone. Kept outside of body (in

scrotum) = permits temperature control. Epididymis: Stores sperm as they develop Vas Deferens: Tube from epididymis to urethra Urethra/Penis: Tube within the penis that leads sperm to outside of

body. Semen: Fluid containing hundreds of millions of sperm per ejaculation. Also

contains sugars (energy for sperm), bases (protect sperm from acidic environment of vagina), other chemicals to enhance sperm motility.

Testes produce hormones More testosterone than estrogen

Produces secondary sex characteristics (facial & body hair, increases body size/muscles, deepens voice)

Stimulates sperm production

Reproductive System: Male

Page 90: Honors Biology Chapter 34: Introduction to Animals.

Reproductive System: Female

Structures: Ovaries: Each ovary contains 400,000

primary follicles (single immature eggs). Once a month 1 follicle goes through meiosis and produces 1 mature egg (sometimes 2 or 3)Ovulation

Fallopian Tubes (oviduct): Carry eggs from ovary to uterus. Site of fertilization.

Uterus: Where a zygote will implant, develop into embryo, then fetus. Made of muscle for pushing in labor.

Cervix: opening of uterus into vagina. Vagina: Birth canal and entrance for sperm into reproductive tract.

Ovaries produce hormones More estrogen & progesterone than testosterone

Regulate menstrual cycle and pregnancy Produce secondary sex characteristics—breast formation, fat distribution,

wider pelvis (hips)
