What is homeostasis and what is the underlying molecular explanation for its occurrence
in animal physiology?
What is Fick’s Law of diffusion? Be able to explain what each symbol in the equation
represents. Understand which variables animals have to contend with in solving the
physical constraints of diffusion within a large body plan.
What are tissues? What are the four tissue types within the vertebrate animal body plan?
Study and know the details of each table of tissues that we constructed in class.
Name the different types of animal skeletons. Be able to give one example of an animal
phylum that has these skeleton types.
What is the vertebrate skeleton comprised of?
How are muscles, joints, bones and tendons associated to result in a moving set of bones?
Understand the difference between muscle antagonists and synergists.
Understand the hierarchical structure of a vertebrate muscle from the gross muscle all the
way to myofilaments.
What is a sarcomere and what is its relation to myofibrils and myofilaments?
