1
Controlling the Internal Environment ThermoregulationOsmoregulationExcretion
2
Thermoregulation Ectothermic Endothermic Poikilothermic Homeothermic
3
Heat Exchange
4
Conduction - direct transfer of heat Convection - transfer of heat by the movement of air or water across a surface Radiation - emission of electromagnetic waves Evaporation - loss of heat from changing a liquid into a gas
5
Body Temp vs. Ambient Temp
6
Thermoregulation Adjustments Adjusting the rate of heat exchange –vasodilation/vasoconstiction –countercurrent heat exchange Cooling by evaporation Behavioral responses Changing the rate of metabolic heat production
7
Endothermic Animals Invertebrates –Large flying insects –Honeybees
8
Endothermic Animals Fish –Bluefin tuna –Swordfish –Great white shark Countercurrent heat exchange
9
Amphibians and Reptiles Most are ectothermic –regulate temperature by behavior
10
Mammals and Birds Contraction of muscles –moving –shivering Nonshivering thermogenesis –triggered by hormones
11
Feedback Mechanisms High body temperature –hypothalamus activates skin blood vessels to dilate and the sweat glands to produce sweat Low body temperature –hypothalamus activates skin blood vessels to constrict and the skeletal muscles to shiver
12
Temperature Range Adjustments Slow changes –acclimatization (enzymes and membranes) Fast changes –heat-shock proteins
13
Metabolic Cycles Torpor Hibernation Aestivation
14
Osmoregulation Osmoconformers vs. Osmoregulators
15
Osmoregulation Marine Fish –hypoosmotic –lose water to environment –must excrete salt –small amounts of urine Freshwater Fish –hyperosmotic –gain water from environment –must take in salt –large amounts of urine
16
Functions of the Excretory System Filtration Reabsorption Secretion Excretion
17
Excretion of Nitrogenous Waste Ammonia Urea Uric Acid
18
Invertebrate Structures Protonephridia (flame cells) network of closed tubules used mostly for osmoregulation found in platyhelminthes, some annelids, mollusk larvae
19
Invertebrate Structures Open tubules surrounded by a nephrostome Osmoregulation and excretion Found in annelids
20
Invertebrate Structures Malpighian Tubules Open into the digestive tract Osmoregulation and excretion Insects and terrestrial arthropods
21
Excretory Systems Origins in Vertebrates Pronephros, Mesonephros, Metanephros
22
Vertebrate Excretory Systems Pronephros –adult hagfish, embryonic fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals Mesonephros –adult lamprey, fish, amphibians, embryonic reptiles, birds, mammals Metanephros –adult reptiles, birds, mammals
24
The Human Excretory System Kidneys Ureters Urinary Bladder Urethra
26
Blood Filtrate to Urine Bowman’s Capsule and the Glomerulus –(filters the blood) Proximal tubule –reabsorbed (NaCl, Potassium, Water, Nutrients) –secretes ( ammonia) –regulates (pH)
27
Blood Filtrate to Urine Loop of Henle –Descending loop reabsorbed (water) –Ascending loop reabsorbed (NaCl)
28
Blood Filtrate to Urine Distal tubule –reabsorbed (NaCl, Water) –secrete (potassium) –regulate (pH) Collecting duct –reabsorbed (NaCl, Water, Urea)
30
Control of the Kidney Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) –water reabsorption Renin-angiotensin- aldosterone system (RAAS) –water reabsorption Atrialnatiuretic Factor (ANF) –inhibits the release of renin
