2. In an insect respiratory tree, the tracheoles contact every cell. spiracles trachea tracheoles ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company See Fig. 45.8 pg 908

4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_GP_gIxTCo The abdominal exoskeletal plates an insect, mostly rigid, move relative to each other by muscle contraction inside, to drive the tidal flow through the spiracles (on the side of the body) See also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYj43gtAKoU

5. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPKTteHoW-8 The Cicada Killer Wasp Sphecius speciosus pumps his abdominal segments like a bellows to produce tidal flow through the spiracles on the side of his body.

6. spiracle trachea tracheoles An insect gas exchange--an invaginated tracheolar system This is not particularly different from the respiratory tree model But the segmented abdomen and musculature permit tidal air flow ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company

7. Here are two spiracles, one open with sensors functioning. The other is closed to avoid desiccation/predation, etc. ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company The convergence with stomata in plant leaves is interesting!

8. In larval aquatic stages of arthropod metamorphosis, larvae may demonstrate evaginated gills rather than invaginated tracheoles. ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company Could this be another example of “ontogeny recapitulating phylogeny”?

9. Vertebrates evolved an invaginated gas exchange system: The alveolate lung ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company Notice in this sequence how exchange surface area increases!

Norton & Company warms, humidifes, traps particles mucus, particles swallowed closes glottis for swallowing cartilage ridges keep airway open exhaled air vibrates cords for voice cilia lift mucus with particles upward Tidal flow in “blind pouch” exchange system

13. The mammalian lung gas exchange fine structure: the alveolus ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company Note the convergence of the oxygen contact feature with spongy mesophyll of plants See Fig. 45.10 pg 910

14. Respiratory Pigments Function: deliver O 2 to the cells Hemerythrin – red color but no heme group Fe, low oxygen binding, few inverts, Methylococcus (methanotropic bacterium) Hemocyanin – blue color, Cu group, moderate oxygen binding, most molluscs Hemoglobin – red color, heme Fe group, high oxygen binding, 4 polypeptides, vertebrates and some invertebrates Some organisms have none of these: high surface to body area ratio so exchange occurs at body surface by simple diffusion http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ commons/d/d2/Hemoglobin.gif http://upload.wikimedia.org/ Wikipedia/commons/f/fb/ Hemocyanin2.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/ wikipedia/commons/7/79/ Hemerythrin.jpg

15. How the alveolate lung works ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company inhalationexhalation Notice this is not a counter-current mechanism and is inefficient compared to gills Terrestrial animals do not need efficient exchange because air holds much oxygen compared to water “Artificial respiration” is possible because of this!

16. The ventilation movement in vertebrates with lungs has two parts ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company For many singers and public speakers, the first lesson is re-learning how to breathe! rib muscles lift contracts to drop floor lungs nearly emptylungs nearly full See Fig. 45.11 pg 911

17. Bird lungs have additional air sacs attached to their lungs http://www.strombergschickens.com/images/doves/White_Fantail_Pigeon.jpg posterior sacs anterior sacs lung

19. SEM of bird lung: note-cells are close to gas exchange surfaces Just as observed in plant leaves ©1996 Norton Presentation Maker, W. W. Norton & Company

20. Gas Exchange between the environment and the film of body fluid coating body cells is only the first step in gas exchange for large multicellular animals. The rest of the story involves getting gas exchange between the exchange surfaces and the blood stream and then between the blood stream and the internal body tissues. The rest of the story relates to animal circulation systems which we shall hold off for now...
