Animal Anatomy

1. ulcer: sore in the lining of the stomach caused mostly by a bacteria called Heliobacterphylori [has an enzyme that neutrilizes acied

2. Ingestion [mouth], Digestion [teeth/stomach/etc], Absorption [stomach/small intestine/large intestine, Egestion [large intestine]

3. Breathing

   • Inspiration: diaphragm contracts and flattens, intercostal contracts and moves ribcage upward.
     • Expiration: Diaphragm relaxes and returns to dome shape, intercostal relax and moves ribs down

4. Components of blood: 55% plasma, <1% white blood cells/platelets, 45% red blood cells

   • White blood cells : LEUKOCYTES Red Blood cells : Erythrocytes

5. Functions of the blood

   • regulate temperature, transports nutrients, transports gases

6. Hearts Tempo

   • Sinoartirial node: pacemaker, Myogenic muscle: not attached to the nerve

7. Essential Nutrients

   • Carbohydrates: made up of carbon, hydrogen,oxygen
     • Monosaccharide's are simple sugars [glucose/fructose]
       • Disaccharide: sucrose/maltose/lactose-made by dehydration synthesis
         • Polysaccharides: starch/cellulose/glycogen
   • Lipids: made up of three fatty acids that are bonded with glycerol [triglyceride]
     • Unsaturated triglyceride: called oils and are usually liquid at room temp
       • Saturated triglyceride: usually solid
   • Proteins: made up of amino acids [8 essential acids] held together by peptide bonds
