circulation & osmosis
circulation
-
types of circulation
single circulation
-
ex: shark, rays, bony fish
ex: fish - 1 atrium and 1 ventricle - passes through two capillary beds before returning to the heart
double circulation
-
ex: amphibians, reptiles, and mammals
ex: amphibian (frog) 2 atria and 1 ventricle - control of the relative amount of blood flowing to the lungs and the rest of the body

-
blood
plasma - liquid matrix
influence blood pH, osmotic pressure, viscosity, and they function in liquid transport, immunity and blood clotting
-
-
Gas Exchange
-
specialized structures
-
lungs
air inhaled into the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and dead-end alveoli
-
breathing
-
-
-
-
surfactant - mixture of phospholipids and proteins that coats the alveoli and reduces surface tension
osmoregulation
a process based on the controlled movement of solutes between internal fluids and the external environment
-
-
Excretion
-
-
nephrons
-
-
15% juxtamedullary nephrons extend deep into medulla and are essential for production of urine that is hyper osmotic to body fluids
-
bowman's capsule - cup-shaped swelling which forces fluid from the blood in the glomerulus into the lumbar of bowman's capsule
processing
-
the descending limb of the loop of hence is permeable to water but not salt which leaves by diffusion
