the four main steps of nutrition in all organisms

-acquisition of nutrients -digestion, if required -distribution of nutrients throughout the body -synthesis of molecules for the organism's body

energy sources and allocation

-animals harvest chemical energy from food -energy containing molecules are broken down to make ATP -once energetic needs are met remaining molecules are used in biosynthesis

multicellular organisms with a sac body plan characteristics

-body wall is only 2 cell-layers thick -exchange is by diffusion

tissue

-composed of cells with similar structure and function or -non-cellular components made by the cells (i.e. bone and cartilage)

main distinguishing features of the kingdom animalia

-eukaryotic -multicellular -heterotriphic -negative method of digestion -sexual reproduction -no cell wall -rapid response to stimuli (nerves and muscles)

single-celled organism characteristics

-exchange material by diffusion -entire plasma membrane is exposed to medium

describe exchange in complex animals

-large, complex animals have highly folded or branched internal surfaces -increases surface area -cell in these surfaces are specialized for exchanging materials

different types of transport

-passive transport -facilitated diffusion - using transport proteins -co-transport -active tranpsort

the three functional components of homeostatic control systmes

-receptor -control center -effector used in feedback system to control and maintains the internal environment

three possible configurations with respect to a body cavity

1. acoelomates 2. pseudocoelomates 3. coelomates

four step process of mineral absorption by roots

1. active transport into root hairs 2. diffusion through root hair cytoplasm to endodermis cells via either apoplastic or symplastic route 3. active transport from endodermis cytoplasm into cell or the extracellular space of the vascular cylinder 4. diffusion into the xylem

three possible symmetry arrangements

1. asymmetry 2. radial symmetry 3. bilateral symmetry

two fundamental parts of the cohesion-tension theory

1. cohesion - water within xylem tubes sticks together (by hydrogen bonds). water molecules in the xylem tube resist being pulled apart 2. tension - water is pulled up. because water molecules bind to each other, they cal pull water up like a chain

example of feedback in positive feedback with childbirth

1. early in labor, uterus starts to contract 2. this starts to force baby's head into cervix 3. this stretches the cervix and causes the receptors signal for further contractions 4. usually once the process begins it continuous until the baby is pushed out

two systems are responsible for the control of the activities among the organs

1. endocrine - slow response, but long lasting 2. nervous - quick response, but short lived

by moving minerals into the root, the plant has created conditions to drag water in as well. how does this work?

1. higher water potential in soil relative to the root cells 2. the waterproof casparian strip blocks movement of water between cells at the endodermis 3. the cell membranes of the endodermis act as a gate separating the outer low mineral (higher water potential) solution in the cortex from the inner high mineral (low water potential) solution in the vascular cylinder 4. therefore, water moves from the cells and the extracellular space outside the casparian strip, through the endodermal cells, and into the extracellular space inside the vascular cylinder by osmosis 5. water moves from the extracellular space of the vascular cylinder into tracheids and vessel elements of xylem through the cell wall pits 6. water is then pulled up the xylem, powered by evaporation of water from the leaves (only one not osmosis)

three important triggers to open or close stoma:

1. light reception (opens) - plants need CO2 during photosynthesis. when light strikes certain pigments in guard cells, they trigger a pumping of potassium into guard cells (opening stomata). at night, potassium diffuse back out, closing stomata 2. low carbon dioxide concentration (opens) - plants use CO2 (in photosynthesis) and produce CO2 (in cellular respiration. during the daytime the use of CO2 is much faster than its production. this leads to low CO2 and triggers potassium pumping into the guard cells, opening the stomata 3. water loss (closes) - if water vapor leaves the stomata faster than it can be replaced from xylem, the leaf will wilt. this causes the mesophyll cells to release a hormone (abscisic acid - ABA).

pressure-flow theory steps

1. sugar from photosynthesis enters leaf companion cells by secondary active transport 2. sucrose then diffuses into adjacent sieve tube elements 3. water enters the sieve tubes by osmosis from nearby xylem cells 4. the developing fruit is a "sucrose sink". sucrose is actively transported out of the sieve-tube elements into the cells of a fruit (or root), lowering the sugar level in that end of the system 5. water leaves these sieve tubes due to osmosis, and follows the sugar into the fruit/root 6. bulk flow, driven by hydrostatic pressure gradient (like in a garden hose)

transport in vascular plants occurs on three scales

1. transport of water and solutes by individual 2. short-distance transport of substances from cell to cell at the level of tissues and organs 3. long-distance transport (bulk flow) within xylem and phloem

steps of transpiration

1. water evaporation occurs through stomata of leaves 2. water leaving leaf makes it "dry", so it pulls in more water from xylem 3. the water molecule leaving the xylem is "stuck" to other water molecules, so it pulls up on those molecules, thereby pulling the "chain" of water molecules up the tree

Arrange the following five events in an order that explains the mass flow of materials in the phloem. 1. Water diffuses into the sieve tubes. 2. Leaf cells produce sugar by photosynthesis. 3. Solutes are actively transported into sieve tubes. 4. Sugar is transported from cell to cell in the leaf. 5. Sugar moves down the stem.

the symplastic route

As body size increases in animals, migration to tropical areas becomes necessary for thermoregulation. there is a decrease in the surface-to-volume ratio. reproduction becomes limited to terrestrial environments. there is greater variability in metabolic rate. it becomes more difficult to conserve body warmth in cold environments.

there is a decrease in the surface-to-colume ratio

homeostatic processes for ___________ involve form, function, and behavior

thermoregulation

what stops the guard cells from getting fatter?

they have "belts" of cellulose fibers surrounding them

they have tissues, organs and organ systems

the basic scheme of organization involves cells organized into _____________ organized into ______________ organized into ____________

tissues organs organ systems

main function of epithelial tissue

to form a barrier and the cells are closely joined -because of this the epithelial tissue has no blood vessels

Nervous tissue functions _____. as a physical barrier to the invasion of pathogens to physically move the body to sense stimuli to physically support the body in the absorption of nutrients

to sense stimuli

by the time the protostomes get to about the four-cell stage the cells have lost their ______________ and their fate is already fixed

totipotency

the cells present after the four-cell stage retain their ____________ and the ability to develop into any type of cell or even a complete embryo

totipotency (stem cells)

transport of water (by osmosis) and solutes (by diffusion or active transport) by individual cells occurs via a . . .

transmembrane route

function of the synaptic terminal

transmits the signal to target cell at a region called the synapse

process of water being pulled up the xylem powered by the force of evaporation of water from the leaves

transpiration

The distinction between sponges and other animal phyla is based mainly on the absence versus the presence of a body cavity. mesoderm. true tissues. a complete digestive tract. a circulatory system.

true tissues

The most ancient branch point in animal phylogeny is that between having radial or bilateral symmetry. a well-defined head or no head. true tissues or no tissues. diploblastic or triploblastic embryos. a body cavity or no body cavity.

true tissues or no tissues

the flow of water in xylem is ___________ because only the shoot has openings in the epidermis where water can escape

unidirectional

phloem can move nutrients ________ the plant

up or down

what is a regulator

uses internal control mechanisms to moderate internal change in the face of internal and.or external fluctuation

blood flow to the skin decreases, lowering heat loss

vasoconstriction

blood flow to the skin increases, facilitating heat loss

vasodilation

circulatory adaptions

vasodilation vasoconstriction

Ignoring all other factors, what kind of day would result in the fastest delivery of water and minerals to the leaves of a tree? cool, humid day cool, dry day warm, dry day very hot, dry, windy day warm, humid day

warm, dry day

Which of the following statements about xylem transport is true? Hints Water and minerals enter the xylem by active transport. The xylem cells that conduct water and minerals are alive. Water and minerals move through the root cortex into the xylem and upward through the stem and into leaves. All water transported by the xylem is used for photosynthesis in the leaves.

water and minerals move through the root cortex into the xylem and upward through the stem and into leave

Select the accurate statement about water potential. Adding solutes to water increases water potential. Free water moves from a region of lower water potential to a region of higher water potential. Water in a turgid cell has positive pressure potential

water in a turgid cell has positive pressure potential

pseudocoelomates

where a cavity is present but is not derived from the mesoderm

coelomates

where the cavity is derived from mesoderm

Which of the following is a correct statement about a difference between xylem and phloem transport? Xylem sap moves from sugar source to sink, but phloem sap does not. Transpiration moves phloem sap but not xylem sap. Xylem sap moves up; phloem sap moves up or down. Phloem carries water and minerals; xylem carries organic molecules. Active transport moves xylem sap but not phloem sap.

xylem sap moves up; phloem sap moves up or down
