Respiration and Circulation Chapters 22 and 23
5
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. – The process of gas exchange is called respiration, the interchange of –O 2 and the waste product CO 2 –Between an organism and its environment Introduction: Surviving in Thin Air
6
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.1 Gas Exchange Three phases 1. Breathing 2. Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide in blood 3. Body tissues take up oxygen and release carbon dioxide Cellular respiration requires a continuous supply of oxygen and the disposal of carbon dioxide
7
Lung Exchange of gases with body cells Cell Capillary Mitochondria Breathing Circulatory system Transport of gases by the circulatory system CO 2 O2O2 O2O2 1 2 3

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.2 exchange across moist body surfaces Respiratory surfaces Diffusion through skin – amphibians, worms Lungs in birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians Book lungs in spider Tracheal tubes in insects Gills in fishes; amphibians
9
Cut CO 2 O2O2 Cross section of respiratory surface (the outer skin) Capillaries
10
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.3 Cold water holds more oxygen than warm water Fresh water holds more oxygen than salt water Turbulent water holds more oxygen than still water
11
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.4 Compared to water, using air to breathe has two big advantages –contains higher concentrations of O 2 –lighter and easier to move
12
Tracheae Air sacs Opening for air Body cell Tracheole Air sac Trachea Body wall CO 2 O2O2
13
Oxygen-rich blood Bronchiole Alveoli Oxygen-poor blood Blood capillaries Nasal cavity Left lung Pharynx Larynx Trachea Right lung Bronchus Bronchiole Diaphragm (Heart) (Esophagus)
14
Lung Heart
15
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.8 Pressure and Ventilation Breathing is the alternate inhalation and exhalation of air (ventilation) Inhalation occurs when 1. The rib cage expands 2. The diaphragm moves downward 3. The pressure around the lungs decreases 4. And air is drawn into the respiratory tract
16
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.8 Exhalation occurs when 1. The rib cage contracts 2. The diaphragm moves upward 3. The pressure around the lungs increases 4. And air is forced out of the respiratory tract
17
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.9 Breathing is usually under automatic control Breathing control centers in the brain sense and respond to CO 2 levels in the blood A drop in blood pH increases the rate and depth of breathing
18
Cerebrospinal fluid Pons Medulla Brain Nerve signals trigger contraction of muscles Diaphragm Rib muscles 1 Breathing control centers respond to pH of blood 2 Nerve signals indicating CO 2 and O 2 levels 3 CO 2 and O 2 sensors in aorta
19
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.11 Most animals transport O 2 bound to proteins called respiratory pigments –Copper-containing pigment is used by –Molluscs –Arthropods –Iron-containing hemoglobin –Is used by almost all vertebrates and many invertebrates –Transports oxygen, buffers blood, and transports CO 2
20
O 2 loaded in lungs O 2 unloaded in tissues Iron atom Polypeptide chain Heme group O2O2 O2O2
21
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22.12 – A human fetus –exchanges gases with maternal blood in the placenta – In the placenta, capillaries of maternal blood and fetal blood run next to each other –The fetus and mother do not share the same blood
22
The Path 1. Oxygen in lungs (alveoli) move into capillaries 2. CO 2 moves from capillaries into lungs 3. O 2 is bound to hemoglobin (red blood cells) and is transported throughout the body 4. O 2 moves out of capillaries into fluid around cells and into cells 5. CO 2 moves out of cells into fluid and into capillaries 6. CO 2 is coverted to bicarbonate and carried to lungs converted back to CO 2
23
Right atrium To lung From lung Semilunar valve Atrioventricular (AV) valve Left atrium To lung From lung Semilunar valve Atrioventricular (AV) valve Right ventricle Left ventricle
24
The Path 1.Leaves left ventricle to aorta 2.Moves from aorta to arteries to arterioles to capillaries 3.Exchanges gases and nutrients with cells 4.Moves from capillaries to venules to veins 5.Moves to right atrium to right ventricle 6.Moves to lungs for gas exchange 7.Moves to left atrium to left ventricle
25
Connective tissue Capillary Venule Smooth muscle Arteriole ArteryVein Valve Epithelium Basal lamina Epithelium Smooth muscle Epithelium Connective tissue
26
Nuclei of smooth muscle cells Red blood cell Capillary
27
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 23.8 Blood pressure –Highest in arteries –Lowest in veins measured as –Systolic pressure—caused by ventricular contraction –Diastolic pressure—low pressure between contractions
