2
Use free energy to maintain homeostasis in response to environmental conditions In order to survive, organisms need: Timing and Coordination
3
Diversity of life on Earth 6 kingdoms Organisms detect environment conditions Organisms communicate Endocrine, Immune, Nervous System Animal behaviors
4
Maintaining homeostasis
5
Negative feedback: returning the changing condition back to its target set point Ex: temperature regulation in animals Ex: plant responses to water limitations Positive feedback: amplification of a response by moving away from its set point. Ex:ripening of fruit Ex: labor in childbirth
6
Leads to harmful effects on individual Ex: diabetes
7
Respond to a changing environment by using energy to maintain homeostasis
8
Organisms respond to changes in their environment through behavioral and physiological mechanisms
10
Excretory system in flatworms earthworms and vertebrates Osmoregulation in bacteria fish and protists Osmoregulation in aquatic and terrestrial plants Thermoregulation in aquatic and terrestrial animals
11
Using energy to respond to the environment to maintain homeostasis
12
Directed movement in response to stimulus toward attractant: food away deterent: poison Structure: flagellum
13
Bacteria expel proteins in normal lifecycle Populations increase other functions begin
14
When environment lacks specific nutrients, bacterial cell develops protective cell Genome is copied Water is removed Metabolism stops Original cell lysis Endospore endures Dormant for centuries
15
Using energy to respond to the environment to maintain homeostasis
16
Occur as a result of internal and external signals that synchronize with environmental cycles and cues Ex: fruiting body development in response to nutritional depletion
17
Using energy to respond to the environment to maintain homeostasis
18
Growth in response to light (positive) toward light shoots (negative) roots down Mechanism: auxin hormone
19
Response to timing of light Determine time of day/season Mechanism: phytochrome
20
Positive feedback mechanism Mechanism: Ethylene
21
Plants pass materials between cells
22
Physical defense: Thorns, trichomes Chemical defense: Glycosides Symbiotic defense: Recruitment of animals
23

24
C4 plants
25
Using energy to respond to the environment to maintain homeostasis
27
Contact Plant Cells Short Distance Contact Animal Cells Long Distance
28
Hormones (Endocrine System) Antigens (Immune System) Neurotransmitters (Nervous System)

32
Molecules produced by endocrine cells Typically travel through circulatory system
35
Medicine: Birth control Depression Blood pressure Metabolism

40
Defenses that activate immediately upon infection
41
Organism Barrier: Chitinous exoskeleton Cellular: Hemocytes ingest bacteria Molecular: Lysozyme enzymes break cell walls
42
Organism Barrier: Skin Cellular: Neutrophils and macrophages Molecular: Interferon & 30 protein complement system
43
Histamine and citokine signals trigger capillaries to dilate
44
Vertebrate defenses remembered after initial exposures

60
Response of a muscle or gland under control of the nervous system in response to a stimulus Innate vs. Learned
61
Kinesis Random movement in response to stimulus Ex: Paramecium slow down and turn more often in the presence of bacteria (food)
62
Taxis Direct movement toward/away from stimulus Ex: American Cockroach hides from light
63
Detection of light to set internal clock Mechanism: pineal gland detecting sunlight
64
Regular long distance change in location Mechanism (in birds) Magnetite in brain to visualize magnetic field
65
Lowering of metabolism to survive seasons
66
Honeybees perform the waggle dance to communicate the location of food sources
67
Pheromones Ex: alarm or reproductive
69
Pack behavior in animals
70
A loss of responsiveness to stimuli that convey little or no new information Ex: prairie dog alarm call in human presence
71
Ability to associate one environmental feature with another Ex: Mouse associates color/taste
72
The process of recognizing and following the first moving object encountered during a “sensitive period” of life (learned/innate)
73
Scientists often wear costumes to prevent human imprinting with endangered species
74
The process of knowing by awareness, reasoning, recollection & judgment. Ex: primates learn how to use tools
