TURTLE: Reptile Note the size of the heart Note the intestinal tract

Pigeon: BIRD Note the size of the heart Note the crop and gizzard Note the intestinal tract

Pig: MAMMAL 1)Lungs for efficient air exchange--oxygen fuel for endothermy. 2)Heart (strong and large) for efficient oxygen and nutrient transmission--important for endothermy 3)Small intenstines long and folded for efficient nutrient absorption--important for endothermy 4)Kidneys concentrate liquid wastes--important for water conservation on land 5)Reproductive organs allow for internal fertilization--important for land survival 6)Fat and fur for heat insulation --important for endothermy 7)High muscle mass. 4 limbs--more rapid movement (possible due to endothermy) 8)Ribs protect thoracic cavity (all vertebrates, but especially strong in land vertebrates) 9)Stomach fairly large (under liver), allows for large food intake-- important for endothermy Liver
