BIO 2110 Lecture Notes - Lecture 19: Brown Adipose Tissue, Uncoupling Protein, Bone Marrow
Document Summary
Slow evolution into niche environments and may be more or less tolerant to changes in parameter. Increase pp in capillaries cross current flow with parabronchi. Not as much on exam, covered in midterm. Just check the slides if you want to see, but not as important. Many in rats, not as many brown in humans. Baby rats have more cause cold when born naked. Uncoupling protein, h leaves but no atp generated, only heat. Part 2 - i"m guessing just memorize the slides. Environment, marine vs fresh vs desert vs brackish. Energetically costly to turn it form toxic to not as toxic. Just check slides or animal form notes for details. Marine fish, try to keep salt out (or conform like a shark) Fresh water, try to keep salt and get rid of water. Eye, suprachiasmatic nucleus (above chiasma, or crossing of nerves), pineal gland. Coordination by the super clock scn, like the liver.
