2. Overview: Diverse Forms, Common Challenges Anatomy is the study of the biological form of an organism Physiology is the study of the biological functions an organism performs The comparative study of animals reveals that form and function are closely correlated Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

4. Concept 40.1: Animal form and function are correlated at all levels of organization Size and shape affect the way an animal interacts with its environment Many different animal body plans have been designed and are determined by the genome Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

5. Physical Constraints on Animal Size and Shape The ability to perform certain actions depends on an animal’s shape, size, and environment “Evolutionary convergence” reflects different species’ adaptations to a similar environmental challenge Physical laws impose constraints on animal size and shape. Volume increases much faster than the surface area needed for diffusion. Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

7. Exchange with the Environment An animal’s size and shape directly affect how it exchanges energy and materials with its surroundings Exchange occurs as substances dissolved in the aqueous medium diffuse and are transported across the cells’ plasma membranes A single-celled protist living in water has a sufficient surface area of plasma membrane to service its entire volume of cytoplasm Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

12. In vertebrates, the space between cells is filled with interstitial fluid, which allows for the movement of material into and out of cells Interstitial fluid of a complex body plan helps an animal in a variable environment to maintain a relatively stable internal environment Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

13. Most animals are composed of specialized cells organized into tissues that have different functions Tissues make up organs, which together make up organ systems Hierarchical Organization of Body Plans Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

14. Table 40-1

15. Different tissues have different structures that are designed for their functions Tissues are classified into four main categories: 1.epithelial 2.connective 3.muscle 4.nervous Tissue Structure and Function Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

16. Epithelial Tissue Epithelial tissue covers the outside of the body and lines the organs and cavities within the body It contains cells that are closely joined The shape of epithelial cells may be cuboidal (like dice), columnar (like bricks on end), or squamous (like floor tiles) Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

17. The arrangement of epithelial cells may be simple (single cell layer), stratified (multiple tiers of cells), or pseudostratified (a single layer of cells of varying length) Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

18. Fig. 40-5a Epithelial Tissue Cuboidal epithelium Simple columnar epithelium Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium Stratified squamous epithelium Simple squamous epithelium

19. Connective Tissue Connective tissue mainly binds, supports, and connect other tissues It contains sparsely packed cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix The matrix consists of fibers in a liquid, jellylike, or solid foundation Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

20. There are three types of connective tissue fiber, all made of protein: – Collagenous fibers provide strength and flexibility – Elastic fibers stretch and snap back to their original length – Reticular fibers join connective tissue to adjacent tissues Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

21. Connective tissue contains cells, including – Fibroblasts that secrete the protein of extracellular fibers – Macrophages that are involved in the immune system Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

22. In vertebrates, the fibers and foundation combine to form six major types of connective tissue: 1.Loose connective tissue binds epithelia to underlying tissues and holds organs in place 2.Cartilage is a strong and flexible support material 3.Fibrous connective tissue is found in tendons, which attach muscles to bones, and ligaments, which connect bones at joints Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

23. 4.Adipose tissue stores fat for insulation and fuel 5.Blood is composed of blood cells and cell fragments in blood plasma 6.Bone is mineralized and forms the skeleton Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

25. Muscle Tissue Muscle tissue consists of long cells called muscle fibers, which contract in response to nerve signals (actin and myosin) 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 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

27. 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 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

28. Fig. 40-5n Glial cells Nervous Tissue 15 µm Dendrites Cell body Axon Neuron Axons Blood vessel 40 µm

29. Coordination and Control Control and coordination within a body depend on the 1) endocrine system and the 2) nervous system The endocrine system transmits chemical signals called hormones to receptive cells throughout the body via blood A hormone may affect one or more regions throughout the body Hormones are relatively slow acting, but can have long-lasting effects Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

30. Fig. 40-6 Stimulus Hormone Endocrine cell Signal travels everywhere via the bloodstream. Blood vessel Response (a) Signaling by hormones Stimulus Neuron Axon Signal Signal travels along axon to a specific location. Signal Axons Response (b) Signaling by neurons

31. The nervous system transmits information between specific locations The information conveyed depends on a signal’s pathway, not the type of signal Nerve signal transmission is very fast Nerve impulses can be received by neurons, muscle cells, and endocrine cells Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

32. Fig. 40-6b Stimulus Neuron Axon Signal Signal travels along axon to a specific location. Signal Axons Response (b) Signaling by neurons

33. Concept 40.2: Feedback control loops maintain the internal environment in many animals Animals manage their internal environment by regulating or conforming to the external environment Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

34. A regulator uses internal control mechanisms to moderate internal change in the face of external, environmental fluctuation (endothermic organisms) A conformer allows its internal condition to vary with certain external changes (ectothermic organisms) Regulating and Conforming Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

36. Homeostasis Organisms use homeostasis to maintain a “steady state” or internal balance regardless of external environment In humans, body temperature, blood pH, and glucose concentration are each maintained at a constant level Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

37. Mechanisms of homeostasis moderate changes in the internal environment For a given variable, fluctuations above or below a set point serve as a stimulus; these are detected by a sensor and trigger a response The response returns the variable to the set point Mechanisms of Homeostasis Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Animation: Negative/positive Feedback Animation: Negative/positive Feedback

38. Fig. 40-8 Response: Heater turned off Stimulus: Control center (thermostat) reads too hot Room temperature decreases Set point: 20ºC Room temperature increases Stimulus: Control center (thermostat) reads too cold Response: Heater turned on

39. Feedback Loops in Homeostasis The dynamic equilibrium of homeostasis is maintained by negative feedback, which helps to return a variable to either a normal range or a set point Most homeostatic control systems function by negative feedback, where buildup of the end product shuts the system off Positive feedback loops occur in animals, but do not usually contribute to homeostasis Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

40. Alterations in Homeostasis Set points and normal ranges can change with age or show cyclic variation Homeostasis can adjust to changes in external environment, a process called acclimatization Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

41. Concept 40.3: Homeostatic processes for thermoregulation involve form, function, and behavior Thermoregulation is the process by which animals maintain an internal temperature within a tolerable range Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

42. Endothermic animals generate heat by metabolism; birds and mammals are endotherms Ectothermic animals gain heat from external sources; ectotherms include most invertebrates, fishes, amphibians, and non- avian reptiles Endothermy and Ectothermy Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

43. In general, ectotherms tolerate greater variation in internal temperature, while endotherms are active at a greater range of external temperatures Endothermy is more energetically expensive than ectothermy Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

44. Fig. 40-9 (a) A walrus, an endotherm (b) A lizard, an ectotherm

45. Balancing Heat Loss and Gain Organisms exchange heat by four physical processes 1.conduction, 2.convection, 3.radiation, 4.evaporation Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

46. Fig. 40-10 RadiationEvaporation ConvectionConduction

47. Heat regulation in mammals often involves the integumentary system: skin, hair, and nails Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

48. Fig. 40-11 Epidermis Dermis Hypodermis Adipose tissue Blood vessels Hair Sweat pore Muscle Nerve Sweat gland Oil gland Hair follicle

49. Five general adaptations help animals thermoregulate: – Insulation – Circulatory adaptations – Cooling by evaporative heat loss – Behavioral responses – Adjusting metabolic heat production Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

50. Insulation Insulation is a major thermoregulatory adaptation in mammals and birds that reduce heat flow – Skin – Feathers – Fur – blubber Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

51. Regulation of blood flow near the body surface significantly affects thermoregulation Many endotherms and some ectotherms can alter the amount of blood flowing between the body core and the skin In vasodilation, blood flow in the skin increases, facilitating heat loss In vasoconstriction, blood flow in the skin decreases, lowering heat loss Circulatory Adaptations Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

52. The arrangement of blood vessels in many marine mammals and birds allows for countercurrent exchange Countercurrent heat exchangers transfer heat between fluids flowing in opposite directions Countercurrent heat exchangers are an important mechanism for reducing heat loss Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

54. Some bony fishes and sharks also use countercurrent heat exchanges Many endothermic insects have countercurrent heat exchangers that help maintain a high temperature in the thorax Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

55. Cooling by Evaporative Heat Loss Many types of animals lose heat through evaporation of water in sweat Panting increases the cooling effect in birds and many mammals Sweating or bathing moistens the skin, helping to cool an animal down Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

56. Both endotherms and ectotherms use behavioral responses to control body temperature Some terrestrial invertebrates have postures that minimize or maximize absorption of solar heat Behavioral Responses Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Who are these aliens? 12° wind chill factor!

57. Fig. 40-13

58. Adjusting Metabolic Heat Production Some animals can regulate body temperature by adjusting their rate of metabolic heat production Heat production is increased by muscle activity such as moving or shivering Some ectotherms can also shiver to increase body temperature Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

61. Birds and mammals can vary their insulation to acclimatize to seasonal temperature changes When temperatures are subzero, some ectotherms produce “antifreeze” compounds to prevent ice formation in their cells (Beautiful Design!) Some ectotherms have cells that produce variants of enzymes that have the same function but with different optimal temperatures! (DESIGN!) Proportions of saturated and unsaturated lipids in membranes may change (cholesterol buffers) Acclimatization in Thermoregulation Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

62. Physiological Thermostats and Fever Thermoregulation is controlled by a region of the brain called the hypothalamus The hypothalamus triggers heat loss or heat generating mechanisms Fever is the result of a change to the set point for a biological thermostat Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

63. Fig. 40-16 Sweat glands secrete sweat, which evaporates, cooling the body. Thermostat in hypothalamus activates cooling mechanisms. Blood vessels in skin dilate: capillaries fill; heat radiates from skin. Increased body temperature Decreased body temperature Thermostat in hypothalamus activates warming mechanisms. Blood vessels in skin constrict, reducing heat loss. Skeletal muscles contract; shivering generates heat. Body temperature increases; thermostat shuts off warming mechanisms. Homeostasis: Internal temperature of 36–38°C Body temperature decreases; thermostat shuts off cooling mechanisms.

64. Concept 40.4: Energy requirements are related to animal size, activity, and environment Bioenergetics is the overall flow and transformation of energy in an animal It determines how much food an animal needs and relates to an animal’s size, activity, and environment Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

65. Energy Allocation and Use Animals harvest chemical energy from food Energy-containing molecules from food are usually used to make ATP, which powers cellular work After the needs of staying alive are met, remaining food molecules can be used in biosynthesis Biosynthesis includes body growth and repair, synthesis of storage material such as fat, and production of gametes Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

66. Fig. 40-17 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

67. Metabolic rate is the amount of energy an animal uses in a unit of time One way to measure it is to determine the amount of oxygen consumed or carbon dioxide produced Quantifying Energy Use Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

68. Fig. 40-18

69. Minimum Metabolic Rate and Thermoregulation Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the metabolic rate of an endotherm at rest at a “comfortable” temperature Standard metabolic rate (SMR) is the metabolic rate of an ectotherm at rest at a specific temperature Both rates assume a nongrowing, fasting, and nonstressed animal Ectotherms have much lower metabolic rates than endotherms of a comparable size Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

70. Metabolic rates are affected by many factors besides whether an animal is an endotherm or ectotherm Two of these factors are size and activity Influences on Metabolic Rate Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

71. Size and Metabolic Rate Metabolic rate per gram is inversely related to body size among similar animals The higher metabolic rate of smaller animals leads to a higher oxygen delivery rate, breathing rate, heart rate, and greater (relative) blood volume, compared with a larger animal Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

75. Activity greatly affects metabolic rate for endotherms and ectotherms In general, the maximum metabolic rate an animal can sustain is inversely related to the duration of the activity Note for interest sake: For most terrestrial animals, the average rate of energy consumption is 2-4 times BMR; humans in developed countries have metabolic rate of 1.5 times BMR. Activity and Metabolic Rate Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

76. Different species use energy and materials in food in different ways, depending on their environment Use of energy is partitioned to BMR (or SMR), activity, thermoregulation, growth, and reproduction Energy Budgets Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

82. Torpor and Energy Conservation Torpor is a physiological state in which activity is low and metabolism decreases Torpor enables animals to save energy while avoiding difficult and dangerous conditions Hibernation is long-term torpor that is an adaptation to winter cold and food scarcity Estivation, or summer torpor, enables animals to survive long periods of high temperatures and scarce water supplies Daily torpor is exhibited by many small mammals and birds and seems adapted to feeding patterns Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
