chapter 40 & 41 - Coggle Diagram

- - - - omnivores: these animals can eat plants and meat.
- - - - there is two parts of the epithelial tissue. Apical is the side that faces into the space, meanwhile basal is the attached side of the tissue.
  - - - negative feedback: a feedback loop where stimulus triggers a process to lessen said stimulus. EX. blood clotting.
      - positve feedback: this feedback loop will continue until a process has reached completion. EX. Birth.
      - acclimatization: this is an organism having a physiological adjustment to a change in its environment.
    - - endothermic: this organism generates their own heat via their own metabolism. they maintain their body temp even with fluctuations of the environment.
      - ectothermic: this organism gains heat from outside sources instead of their own metabolism.
        
        poikilotherm: their body temp is heavily influenced by their environment.
        
        homeotherm: this organism has a relatively consistent body temp.
      - counter-current exchange: this is the exchange of heat due to two fluids flowing the opposite ways.
    - - SMR: standard metabolic rate. used for ectotherms who are fasting and non-stressed. the temperature however has to be specified.
        
        size effects metabolic rates across animals. proportionally the smaller the animal is, the higher their metabolic rate.
- - - - the small intestine is next. it is over 20ft long and the first 10 inches are called the duodenum. here the chyme mixes with pancreatic juices and bile from the liver and gallbladder. its main function is absorbing all the nutrients from the chyme with the micovilli
        
        ending with the large intestine. its main job is to absorb water and expel the remaining wastes.
        
        a cecum is more important for herbivores with helping them digest and ferment plant matter
