Download Chapter 40 Animal Form and Function

Chapter Objectives: Chapter 40 Animal Form and Function
1. Define tissue and explain where it falls in the hierarchy of structural
organization
2. From micrographs or diagrams, correctly identify the following animal
tissues, explain how their structure relates to function, and give examples of
each
a. epithelial: cuboidal, columnar, squamous
b. connective: adipose, cartilage, bone
c. muscle: skeletal (striated), cardiac, smooth
d. nervous
3. Describe how metabolic rate can be determined for animals and distinguish
between basal metabolic rate and standard metabolic rate
4. Describe several body shapes that maximize external surface area in
contact with the environment
5. Explain how animals with complex internal organization and relatively small
surface area to volume ratio can have adequate surface area for materials
exchange with the environment
6. Describe the location and function of interstitial fluid
7. Define homeostasis
8. Distinguish between negative and positive feedback

Chapter Outline Framework
A. Levels of Structural Organization
1. Function correlates with structure in animal tissues
2. Organ systems are interdependent
B. Introduction to Animal Bioenergetics
1. Animals are heterotrophs that harvest chemical energy from the
food they ingest
2. Metabolic rate provides clues to an animal's bioenergetic strategy
3. Metabolic rate per gram is inversely related to body size among
similar animals
C. Body Plans and the External Environment
1. Physical support on land depends on adaptations of body proportions
and posture
2. Body size and shape affect interactions with the environment
D. Regulating the Internal Environment
1. Mechanisms of homeostasis moderate changes to the internal
environment
2. Homeostasis depends on feedback circuits
