Question
Answer
Organs of gas exchange   skin,external gills(exposed-get O2 well but can get damaged),internal gills(H2O flow not as good but well protected),lungs  
🗑
Skin   cutaneous respiration(must have low amount of keratin),low metabolic rate,Low O2 requirement.amphibians  
🗑
External gills   Larval form,few adult-Salamanders(neoteny)  
🗑
Internal gills   Most common,fish,develop on pharyngeal bars.unidirectional water flow(mouth->gills->out).more efficient than bidirectional or tidal  
🗑
Types of internal gills   pouch gills,septal gills,opercular gills  
🗑
pouch gills   internal and external pores  
🗑
septal gills   chondricthyes.internal and external slits.large gill chamber,gas exchange lamella on septa.  
🗑
opercular gills   bony fish.gill bars,lamella free floating,operculum(protects delicate gill tissue,used as pump,used in communication).counter current(2 fluid streams will pass each other in different direction-very efficient)  
🗑
Septum   supports gills in cartilage fish  
🗑
filament   each individual gill  
🗑
afferent artery   bringing blood from heart  
🗑
efferent artery   pick up O2 and blood and brings it to body.  
🗑
Gill SA   Tiny folding, secondary lamellae on gill filaments.Secondary lamellae per mm.80-90% of O2 in water is extracted by gills. very efficient  
🗑
Blood flow in gills   heart,ventral aorta,afferent branchial arteries(5in shark),capillaries of gill filament(pick up O2 in collection loop),efferent branchial arteries(now O2rich blood(4in sharks)),dorsal aorta.**single circuit  
🗑
Other functions of gills   Nitrogen excretion as ammonia,salt and water excretion,salt and water up take,heat exchange.  
🗑
General lungs   air filled,respiratory,grow from digestive tract,ventral paired  
🗑
Gas bladder   air filled,buoyancy,grow from digestive tract,dorsal(mostly),single  
🗑
What would happen if the gas bladder was dorsal?   expand energy to keep upright,adapt like upside down catfish(they also have reverse counter shading)  
🗑
Swim bladder mechanisms   reservoir for gases,add or release gases for neutral buoyancy.special cases are lung fish(seasonal ponds dry up, switch to lungs)  
🗑
Lungs   paired,huge SA,joins gut tube via trachea,only respiratory,blood supply from 6th aortic arch  
🗑
amphibians respiration   first vocal cords,short trachea,small sac like lungs, little internal partitioning,positive pressure ventilation(forces air into lungs(almost swollow air)).  
🗑
Reptiles respiration   lungs are larger, Larger SA.bronchi enter further caudad,larynx,negative pressure ventilation(well developed ribs)  
🗑
Mammal respiration   Large lungs,very large SA.Trachea is C shaped cartilage.negative pressure(muscular diaphragm).Tidal flow,need to match ventilation and perfusion for things to work properly,alveoli is very thin.  
🗑
Respiration path in mammals   nose(2nostrils to increase SA),glottis,larynx,trachea(bifurcates),primary bronchi,2nd bronchi,3rd bronchi,bronchioles(smooth muscle),alveoli,gas exchange,epiglottis.  
🗑
Negative pressure ventilation   diaphragm contracts, lowers,air enters,diaphragm relaxes,raised,air pushes out,muscle fibers radial in diapgragm,only mammals have fully muscular diaphragm.  
🗑
Diving mammals   Increase pressure,lots of nitrogen dissolves in blood (this is bad).therefore dive fast,dissolved gas released.seal case study showed that lungs collapse(lot more cartilage) so nitrogen doesnt diffuse in, lungs open back up when at surface.  
🗑
Bird respiration   syrinx(larynx).most efficient.lungs and air sacs stores air.one way air flow,parabronchi=alveoli.parabronchi are in the main lung.cyclical more efficient.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
