Document Summary
Bio 103 chapter 44 week 3 gas exchange and circulation. Describe the basic design of respiratory and circulatory systems, and how they differ amongst animals. Explain the reason why different respiratory physiology arise to breathe air versus water. Discuss the differences between gills, trachea, and lungs and know which type of animals use each as a respiratory surface. Describe how animals control ventilation of the respiratory surface. Describe how the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide is controlled in blood, focusing on the role of oxygen carrier proteins. Describe the diversity in circulatory systems in animals. Describe the complex regulation of the human circulatory system, the route of blood through the blood vessels, activity of the heart and how each is controlled in response to need. Chemical reactions that sustain life produce steady stream of waste. Chemical reactions also require constant input of materials. To support continued atp production cells have to obtain oxygen and expel excess carbon dioxide.
