Chemical vs physical digestion

Physical Digestion - is the breakdown of food by physical means. - physical digestion starts when we use our knife and fork to break down large substances. - our teeth take over to grind food into small particles which can be swallowed. - physical digestion also includes peristalsis which helps move food down the digestive tract and the muscular churning of food within the stomach which helps mix food substances with digestive juices and acid. Chemical Digestion - chewing, churning, and mixing of food with digestive juices can only separate molecules from each other. These actions cannot split up molecules. Many nutrient molecules are too large to pass through cell membranes (i.e. they cannot be absorbed). - molecules of water, vitamins, and minerals are small enough to be absorbed through the intestinal wall and into the blood stream. - proteins, carbohydrates, and fat molecules are too large and must be broken down further by chemical means. This is chemical digestion.

Air enters the nose or mouth and moves to the pharynx, or throat. The pharynx serves as a passageway for both air and food. Air moves from the pharynx into the trachea, or windpipe. The epiglottis covers the entrance to the trachea when you swallow.At the top of the trachea is the larynx, which contains two elastic folds of tissue called vocal cords. Air then passes through the trachea into two large passageways in the chest cavity called bronchi. Each bronchus leads into one of the lungs. In each lung, the bronchus subdivides into smaller bronchi, and then into bronchioles. Bronchioles subdivide into millions of tiny air sacs called alveoli. Gas exchange takes place in the alveoli. Oxygen diffuses into the blood. Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood

The environment can determine which species survive and which die

what causes a heart beat?

SA node (sinoatrial node) - known as the heart's natural pacemaker The impulse starts in a small bundle of specialized cells located in the right atrium, called the SA node. The electrical activity spreads through the walls of the atria and causes them to contract. This forces blood into the ventricles. The SA node sets the rate and rhythm of your heartbeat. Normal heart rhythm is often called normal sinus rhythm because the SA (sinus) node fires regularly. AV node (atrioventricular node) The AV node is a cluster of cells in the center of the heart between the atria and ventricles, and acts like a gate that slows the electrical signal before it enters the ventricles. This delay gives the atria time to contract before the ventricles do. His-Purkinje Network This pathway of fibers sends the impulse to the muscular walls of the ventricles and causes them to contract. This forces blood out of the heart to the lungs and body. The SA node fires another impulse and the cycle begins again.

29. Why do biologist use binomial nomenclature and the classification system?

The present system of binomial nomenclature identifies each species by a scientific name of two words, Latin in form and usually derived from Greek or Latin roots. The first name (capitalized) is the genus of the organism, the second (not capitalized) is its species. The scientific name of the white oak is Quercus alba, while red oak is Quercus rubra. The first name applies to all species of the genus— Quercus is the name of all oaks—but the entire binomial applies only to a single species. Many scientific names describe some characteristic of the organism ( alba = white; rubra = red); many are derived from the name of the discoverer or the geographic location of the organism.

30. Can you read cladogram's and phygenetic trees?

Both cladograms and phylogenetic trees show relationships among organisms, how alike, or similar, they might be. We can see a typical cladogram and phylogenetic tree here. Although even biologists may use these terms interchangeably, you should know that there are some differences between a cladogram and a phylogenetic tree. First, a cladogram can look at trees that may have been derived from a common ancestor to arrange organisms on different branches. But those branches used aren't representative of the relative amount of change or evolutionary time that has occurred between organisms. Plus, a cladogram doesn't necessarily show exact relationships between ancestors and descendants. On the other hand, the branches on a phylogenetic tree can be proportional to mount of change or evolutionary time. So, you can also track how species have changed over time. Species are still grouped according to similarities and physical or genetic characteristics - for example, the presence or absence of gills. But, a phylogenetic tree describes an evolutionary history by showing how ancestors are related to their descendants and how much those descendants have changed over time.

6. How does natural selection act on natural variation?

Imagine a population of green and white bunnies in a green forest. In this forest owls are a natural predator. Owls will eat more white bunnies than green bunnies because the green color provides these bunnies camouflage. Because of this, more white bunnies survive than green, causing more of the white fur trait to appear in future generations. The owl, a natural force, 'selected' on the natural variation of bunny fur which trait survived and which one did not. Natural selection acts on natural variation to change the allele frequency of a population depending on the favorability of a given trait in a given environment at a given time.

What do mitochondria and chloroplast have in common with prokaryotic cells? How might this support endosybiotic theory?

Mitochondria, chloroplast, and prokaryotes each have: 1. Their own DNA 2. A membrane 3. Can reproduce by binary fission. Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms. At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic cells containing mitochondria then engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved to become specialized chloroplast organelles.

8. How does natural selection cause descent with modification?

Natural selection and descent with modification may sound like the same process, but they are not. Genetic modification can happen for multiple reasons besides natural selection. Some modifications occur because of genetic drift: by random chance, genes for a particular trait such as a particular skin color may become more common in a species. Bacteria engage in horizontal gene transfer, where one microbe trades a piece of its genes with another. This modification of the organisms occurs independent of selective pressures.

Water-Soluble Vitamins Some vitamins, including vitamin C, folate and the B vitamins, are water-soluble, and your body can absorb them easily. These vitamins are easily depleted by cooking with water or lengthy storage times, according to Colorado State University. When you take in excess water-soluble nutrients, your kidneys remove what your body can't use, excreting the excess through your urine. You are unable to store water-soluble vitamins, so you must take in an adequate amount of them each day. Fat-Soluble Vitamins Your body stores fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamins A, D, E and K, in your liver and other organs. It uses bile acids, fluids that help you absorb fat, to hold onto these nutrients for long periods and uses them as needed. Your body eliminates them more slowly than water-soluble nutrients. Fat-soluble nutrients consumed in excess pose a greater danger of toxicity because these substances can accumulate in your body over time.

founder effect

When a few individuals become isolated from a larger population the smaller group may establish a new population with A DIFFERENT gene pool than the original population

What is the flow of blood?

right side: Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve.When the ventricle is full, the tricuspid valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atria while the ventricle contracts. As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs where it is oxygenated Left side:The pulmonary vein empties oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the left atrium of the heart. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your left atrium into your left ventricle through the open mitral valve. When the ventricle is full, the mitral valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atrium while the ventricle contracts. As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the aortic valve, into the aorta and to the body.
