6. 6 Levels or organiziation: smallest  largest? Hierarchical Organization of Body Plans Vertebrates have a “tube within a tube” structure

7. 7 Embryos have three basic tissue layers: –Ectoderm –Mesoderm –Endoderm Tissue Structure and Function

8. 8 Tissues are classified into four main categories: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous Tissue Structure and Function Humans: 210 different cell types – can you name them?! ;)

9. 9 Epithelial Tissue Cuboidal epithelium Simple columnar epithelium Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium Stratified squamous epithelium Simple squamous epithelium Note differences in cell shape and type of layering Tissue Structure and Function

10. 10 Apical surface Basal surface Basal lamina 40 µm Tissue Structure and Function Epithelial cells are attached to a basal lamina at their base.

11. 11 Connective Tissue Connective tissue mainly binds and supports other tissues It contains sparsely packed cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix The matrix consists of fibers in a liquid, jellylike, or solid foundation There are six types of connective tissue.

12. 12 Connective Tissue Collagenous fiber Loose connective tissue Elastic fiber 120 µm Cartilage Chondrocytes 100 µm Chondroitin sulfate Adipose tissue Fat droplets 150 µm White blood cells 55 µm Plasma Red blood cells Blood Nuclei Fibrous connective tissue 30 µm Osteon Bone Central canal 700 µm Tissue Structure and Function

13. 13 Muscle Tissue Muscle tissue consists of long cells called muscle fibers, which contract in response to nerve signals It is divided in the vertebrate body into three types: –Skeletal muscle, or striated muscle, is responsible for voluntary movement –Smooth muscle is responsible for involuntary body activities –Cardiac muscle is responsible for contraction of the heart

14. 14 Muscle Tissue 50 µm Skeletal muscle Multiple nuclei Muscle fiber Sarcomere 100 µm Smooth muscle Cardiac muscle Nucleus Muscle fibers 25 µm Nucleus Intercalated disk Tissue Structure and Function

15. 15 Nervous Tissue Nervous tissue senses stimuli and transmits signals throughout the animal Nervous tissue contains: –Neurons, or nerve cells, that transmit nerve impulses –Glial cells, or glia, that help nourish, insulate, and replenish neurons

18. Organ Systems 18 Communication and integration –detect external stimuli, coordinate the body’s responses Support and movement

19. 19 Organ Systems Regulation and maintenance –regulate and maintain the body’s chemistry

20. Reproduction and development –In females, also nurtures developing embryo/fetus 20 Organ Systems Defense

21. 21 Feedback control loops maintain the internal environment in many animals Animals manage their internal environment by regulating or conforming to the external environment Homeostasis Stimulus: Perturbation/stress Effector Control center Sensor Examples of negative and positive feedback?

22. 22 Feedback control loops maintain the internal environment in many animals Thermoregulation: process by which animals maintain an internal temperature (a) A walrus, an endotherm (b) A lizard, an ectotherm Endothermic animals generate heat by metabolism (birds and mammals) Ectothermic animals gain heat from external sources (invertebrates, fishes, amphibians, and non- avian reptiles)

23. 23 Epidermis Dermis Hypodermis Adipose tissue Blood vessels Hair Sweat pore Muscle Nerve Sweat gland Oil gland Hair follicle Balancing Heat Loss and Gain Balancing temperature usually involves the integumentary system

24. 24 Five general adaptations help animals thermoregulate: –Insulation –Circulatory adaptations –Cooling by evaporative heat loss –Behavioral responses –Adjusting metabolic heat production Balancing Heat Loss and Gain Dragonfly “obelisk” posture

25. 25 Bioenergetics: overall flow of energy in an animal Determines how much food is needed due to animal’s size, activity, and environment Organic molecules in food External environment Animal body Digestion and absorption Nutrient molecules in body cells Carbon skeletons Cellular respiration ATP Heat Energy lost in feces Energy lost in nitrogenous waste Heat Biosynthesis Heat Cellular work Energy Allocation and Use

26. 26 Metabolic rate is the amount of energy an animal uses in a unit of time Energy Use Measured by amount of oxygen consumed or carbon dioxide produced Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the metabolic rate of an endotherm at rest at a “comfortable” temperature
