...function(s) of the digestive system (2.5 pts). The major function of the digestive system is to break down food stuffs for the purpose of extracting essential nutrients, building block molecules, and water (Freeman, 856). 2. Briefly, explain the major function(s) of the cardiovascular system (2.5 pts). The major function of the cardiovascular system is to facilitate the exchange of O2 and CO2 between tissue and the environment as well as the transport of vital molecules and nutrients to all tissues (Freeman, 875). 3. Using all relevant organs and anatomical structures, trace the physical connection between the digestive and cardiovascular systems (3 pts). Once food has emptied into the stomach, secretory enzymes are released that provoke the secretion of pancreatic enzymes as well as bile. Bile emulsifies fat globules which are converted into chylomicrons; these are then absorbed into lacteals for further processing in the lymphatic system before proceeding to final processing...

...10.3: Digestive system disorders 1. Peptic Ulcers: * A peptic ulcer is a sore (hole) in the lining of the stomach or duodenum because the protective mucus that covers the lining has weakened. The tissues become inflamed due to the contact with hydrochloric acid in the stomach * Peptic ulcers cause nausea, loss of appetite, and abdominal pain. * Peptic ulcers begin when bacteria called “Helicobacter pylori” attach to the wall of the stomach and prevent the area from producing the protective mucus. * Ulcers can be treated with antibiotics that kill bacteria. 2. Ulcerative colitis (IBD): * An inflammatory disease that attacks the colon. * Its symptoms are bloody stools, cramps and abdominal pain. * Surgeons remove the affected part of the colon and create a new external opening for digestive wastes. 3. Constipation: * Constipation is when the stools are dry, small, and difficult to eliminate. * It is caused by inadequate waste intake, and by an unhealthy diet taking of fibres (cellulose). * Foods rich in fibres (cellulose) like whole grain bread, brown rice, beans, peas and lentils, help prevent constipation. 4. Hepatitis: * Hepatitis is the inflammation of the liver. * Hepatitis is 3 types: a) Hepatitis (A): * Comes from drinking contaminated water. * There is a vaccine for it. b) Hepatitis (B): * Comes from sexual contact. * There is a vaccine for it. c) Hepatitis (C): * Comes...

...Animal Diversity Part I Introduction One of the primary goals of the second half of Biol 106 is to understand evolutionary relationships among animals and to gain an appreciation for the diversity of animal form and function. The huge diversity of animals requires us to divide our survey of different animals into a number of labs. Because of time limitations, we will consider only the major groups of animals, but your textbook can provide information about other groups represented by few or little known species. The study of animal phylogeny is an important and ongoing scientific investigation. Because there are differing hypotheses regarding the evolutionary relationships between animals, we will use a simplified phylogeny (Figure 1) to help us organize and understand the enormous diversity among animals. It is helpful to group animals according to certain unifying characteristics. The largest grouping of animals is the phylum (plural phyla). As you have learned in lecture, there are a few simple questions one can ask about animals to put them into different phyla. The first question is, “What type of symmetry does the animal exhibit?” Animals can be asymmetrical, that is, possessing no organized body plan. Only the Sponges fall into this category. Animals can also be radially symmetrical, where the body is arranged around a central point at all stages of life. Many in the phylum Cnidaria (pronounced “knee dare ya”) are radially symmetrical. All other animals are bilaterally...

...Chapter.20 Lymphatic System & lymphoid organs and tissues Lymphatic System: returns fluids that have leaked from the blood vascular system back into the blood 3 Parts: Network of lymphatic vessels Lymph = fluid contained in those vessels Lymph nodes - cleanse the lymph as it passes through them Lymphatic vessels form a one way system in which lymph fluid flows only towards the heart. when fluid pressure is greater then the pressure n the lymphatic capillary it will be drained toward the heart. order questions? how does it flow from the lymphatic capillaries to the heart? or opposite way around. The cistern chill collects lymph from the 2 larger lumbar trunks that drain the lower limbs & form the intestinal trunk that drains the digestive organs. Lymphoid Organs & Tissues: provide the structural basis of the immune system -House phagocytic cells & lymphocytes which play roles in the body defines mechanisms & resistance to disease. Ex- Spleen Lymphatic Capillaries: Weave btwn the tissue cells and blood capillaries in the loose CT of the body these vessels to be EXTREMELY permeable due to mini-valves.

...Tissues: An introduction Lab Report Part 1 This lab is divided into two different parts. Part 1 deals with the general characteristics of tissues, and part 2 asks you to interpret some photomicrographs taken of human tissue slides in our lab. Part one should be completed first, but you’ll probably get a lot of hints about the answers for part 2 if you’ve looked over the images and questions provided ahead of time to work on them. To do Part 1, download the following documents and have your textbook available. Part 1 Characteristics of tissues A. Epithelial Tissues What are five general characteristics which distinguish epithelial tissues? (1. Cellularity: tightly packed sheets of cells with little intercellular material between them 2. Basement membrane; the basal surface of ETs are anchored to underlying CT by a distinct basement membrane 3. Specialized contacts: tight junctions and desmosomes 4. Avascularity: contain no blood vessels; are nourished by nutrients which diffuse upward from underlying connective tissue through the basement membrane 5. Regeneration: high regeneration capacity due to rapid cell division ) Explain how the general morphology of epithelial cells may be deduced from the names of the epithelial tissues. (The names of the epithelial cells are characteristic of their structure: simple=single layer stratified=many layers squamous=flat cuboidal=cube shaped columnar=elongated ) Epithelial tissues specialized for secretion can be found...

Mastication, the mechanical breakdown of the food bolus by chewing occurs here. Chemical Digestion begins when the Salivary Glands (Parotid, Sublingual and Submandibular Glands) release saliva into the oral cavity. Saliva contains amylase, an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates. After bolus has been broken down adequately, swallowing occurs. The food bolus will move through the pharynx and enter the esophagus continuing its journey via peristalsis (rhythmic contractions of the...
