1 Homeostasis Maintain a “steady state” or internal balance regardless of external environment Fluctuations above/below a set point serve as a stimulus; these are detected by a sensor (receptor), sends a signal and triggers a response The response returns the variable to the set point © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

3 Negative Feedback “More gets you less.” Return changing conditions back to set point Examples: –Temperature –Blood glucose levels –Blood pH Plants: response to water limitations Positive Feedback “More gets you more.” Response moves variable further away from set point Stimulus amplifies a response Examples: –Lactation in mammals –Onset of labor in childbirth Plants: ripening of fruit

4 Positive or Negative Feedback? Cyclin protein is produced at the beginning of the G2 phase. Cyclin production continues to increase as the cell moves through the G2 phase. Cyclin production reaches is maximum just before the start of the M phase. 4

5 Positive or Negative Feedback? When ATP levels are high in a cell, enzymes involved in glycolysis are allosterically inhibited. This results in a reduction in the amount of ATP produced. 5

6 Do Now: Animals get energy from FOOD Digestion provides monomers required for… ATP synthesis, cellular work, and biosynthesis (growth, repair, reproduction) 6

7 7 What is thermoregulation? Maintaining of internal temperatures in an organism endotherms and ectotherms 7

8 Are these endotherms or ectotherms? ENDOTHERMS 8

9 Characteristics of Endotherms: Maintain constant internal body temp Generate heat from metabolism (C.R.) Requires more energy Higher Metabolic Rates –Highest in very COLD temps (why?) –Negative feedback mechanism! Birds and Mammals 9

10 Characteristics of Ectotherms Internal temp changes with the environmental temp Get heat from external sources Lower metabolic rates Less food intake Behavioral adaptations Play an impt role All other animals 10

11 Figure 40.10 How does this graph characterize the relationship between environmental temperature and body temperature of endotherms and ectotherms?

12 An organisms metabolic rate is the sum of all energy requiring chemical reactions. How can scientists measure the metabolic rate of organisms? Cell Respiration Rates! Oxygen consumption CO2 production Heat Loss 12

13 Comparing the energy expenditures in various sized endotherms and ectotherms Observations: 13

14 How does the size of an organism affect is metabolic rate? (Comparison of various mammals - ENDOTHERMS) Observations and Predictions 14

15 Five adaptations for thermoregulation: Insulation (skin, feather, fur, blubber) Circulatory adaptations (countercurrent exchange) Cooling by evaporative heat loss (sweat) Behavioral responses (shivering, shade, basking) Adjusting metabolic heat production © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

33 OSMOREGULATION AND EXCRETION © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

34  Osmoregulation is the homeostatic control of the uptake and loss of water and solutes such as salt and other ions.  Osmosis is one process whereby animals regulate their uptake and loss of fluids. 25.4 Animals balance the level of water and solutes through osmoregulation © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

35 25.4 Animals balance the level of water and solutes through osmoregulation Osmoconformers –have body fluids with a solute concentration equal to that of seawater, –face no substantial challenges in water balance, and –include many marine invertebrates. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

36 25.4 Animals balance the level of water and solutes through osmoregulation  Osmoregulators have body fluids whose solute concentrations differ from that of their environment, must actively regulate water movement, and include –many land animals, –freshwater animals such as trout, and –marine vertebrates such as sharks. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

37 25.4 Animals balance the level of water and solutes through osmoregulation  Freshwater fish gain water by osmosis (mainly through gills), lose salt by diffusion to the more dilute environment, take in salt through their gills and in food, and excrete excess water in dilute urine. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

38 Figure 25.4_1 Fresh water Excretion of large amounts of water in dilute urine from kidneys Uptake of salt ions by gills Uptake of some ions in food Osmotic water gain through gills and other parts of body surface

39 Saltwater fish –lose water by osmosis from the gills and body surface, –drink seawater, and –use their gills and kidneys to excrete excess salt. 25.4 Animals balance the level of water and solutes through osmoregulation © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

42 25.5 EVOLUTION CONNECTION: A variety of ways to dispose of nitrogenous wastes has evolved in animals Metabolism produces toxic by-products. Nitrogenous wastes are toxic breakdown products of proteins and nucleic acids. Animals dispose of nitrogenous wastes in different ways. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

43 Ammonia (NH 3 ) is –poisonous, –too toxic to be stored in the body, –soluble in water, and –easily disposed of by aquatic animals. 25.5 EVOLUTION CONNECTION: A variety of ways to dispose of nitrogenous wastes has evolved in animals © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

47 25.6 The urinary system plays several major roles in homeostasis The urinary system –forms and excretes urine and –regulates water and solutes in body fluids. In humans, the kidneys are the main processing centers of the urinary system. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

48 Nephrons –are the functional units of the kidneys, –extract a fluid filtrate from the blood, and –refine the filtrate to produce urine. Urine is –drained from the kidneys by ureters, –stored in the urinary bladder, and –expelled through the urethra. 25.6 The urinary system plays several major roles in homeostasis © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

54 25.7 Overview: The key processes of the urinary system are filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion Filtration –Blood pressure forces water and many small molecules through a capillary wall into the start of the kidney tubule. Reabsorption –refines the filtrate, –reclaims valuable solutes (such as glucose, salt, and amino acids) from the filtrate, and –returns these to the blood. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

58 Substances in the blood are transported into the filtrate by the process of secretion. By excretion the final product, urine, is excreted via the ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. 25.7 Overview: The key processes of the urinary system are filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

65 Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) regulates the amount of water excreted by the kidneys by –signaling nephrons to reabsorb water from the filtrate, returning it to the blood, and –decreasing the amount of water excreted. Diuretics –inhibit the release of ADH and –include alcohol and caffeine. 25.9 Hormones regulate the urinary system © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
