Behavioral, Structural, and
Reproductive Adaptations
Mrs. Harlin
2.1.2

Analyze the survival and reproductive
success of organisms in terms of behavioral,
structural, and reproductive adaptations.
Circulatory System


Transport and Excretion

Animals
–
Food absorbed from
the digestive system
enters the circulatory
system where
nutrients are
delivered to cells
throughout the body.
Digestive System

Enzymes break down food into smaller
components.
–
–
–
–
–
–
Mouth (carbohydrates)
Esophagus
Stomach (proteins)
Small Intestines (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids,
and nucleic acids)
Large Intestines (absorbs water)
Anus
Liver




Removes excess glucose and stores it as
glycogen.
Converts amino acids and fats into energy to
be used during metabolism.
Stores vitamins and minerals.
Produces bile for fat digestion.
Homeostasis


Drinking to much during meals or not eating
a well balanced diet can alter the acidity of
the stomach, making digestion harder.
Not drinking enough water throughout the
day can also decrease digestion because
without water nutrients and waste cannot
flow in and out of cells.
pH Levels of Organs and Body Fluids
Organ or fluid pH level








Saliva 6.5 to 7 (slightly acidic to neutral)
Blood 7.36 (slightly alkaline)
Stomach 1.5 to 3 (very acidic)
Pancreatic juice 8.8 (alkaline)
Bile 7 to 7.7 (slightly alkaline)
Small intestine 7 to 7.5 (slightly alkaline)
Large intestine 6.5 to 7.3 (slightly acidic to slightly
alkaline)
Urine 6.5 to 7 (slightly acidic to neutral)
Transport and Excretion

Plants
–
–
Vascular- water travels
through tissues called
xylem; sugar travels
through tissues called
phloem.
Nonvascular- water and
minerals enters directly
through the plasma
membrane and travels
through the plant via
osmosis.
Respiration


Release of gases
Cellular Respiration
–
–
Aerobic- requires oxygen (animals, plants)
Anaerobic- no oxygen required (yeast, bacteria)
Aerobic Respiration

Animals
–
–
–
Lungs (mammals,
reptiles, birds,
amphibians)
Diffusion through the
skin (amphibians,
worms)
Gills (fish and sharks)
Lungfish

Respiration

Plants
Photosynthesis
Respiration
Occurs in the presence of light
(and chlorophyll in plant
cells)
Occurs at all times in cells
Requires energy (light) to
make sugar (glucose)
Releases energy from sugar
Complex substances (sugar)
are formed from simpler
ones.
Complex substances (sugar) are
broken down into simpler
ones.
Carbon dioxide and water are
the raw materials.
Carbon dioxide and water are
the waste products.
Oxygen is given out.
Oxygen is taken in.
Aerobic Cellular Respiration

Occurs in the mitochondria of animal and
plant cells!
O2 + glucose -> CO2 + H2O + ATP
Anaerobic Respiration
–
–
Alcoholic fermentation occurs in
yeast and some bacteria, and
produces carbon dioxide and ethyl
alcohol.
Lactic Acid fermentation occurs in
muscle cells and bacteria. A build
up of lactic acid is what causes
muscle soreness.
Nutrition


Autotrophs- organisms that can make their
own food (photosynthesis).
Heterotrophs- organisms that consume food
or decompose food.
Photosynthesis

Occurs in chloroplasts of
plants and some protists
such as algae.

CO2 + H2O -> O2 + glucose

Sunlight is the energy
source.
Reproduction


Sexual- gametes are needed to create
offspring with variation.
Asexual- gametes are not needed because
an organism makes an exact copy of itself.
Sexual Reproduction



Animals- egg and sperm make a zygote,
which grows into an embryo, which grows
into a fetus
Plants- egg and pollen make a seed which
germinates.
Plants and Fungi- some make spores
Internal Fertilization

Egg and sperm unite inside the organism.
–
–
–
Mammals- nourishment by the placenta
Birds
Nourishment by amniotic egg
Reptiles
External Fertilization

Egg and Sperm unite outside of the
organism.
–
Amphibians
Fish
Ferns
–
Water is needed for fertilization.
–
–
Seed plants

Gymnosperms- cone
bearing plants
Seed plants

Angiospermsflowering plants
Behavioral Adaptations

As an organism develops special behaviors
which may be innate or learned are important
for survival.
Suckling
Taxis


Chemotaxis (Termites release pheromones
for communication)
Phototaxis (Plants response to light)
Migration
Estivation/Hibernation



A state of lower metabolic activity- torpor.
Estivation- summer; heat and drought
Hibernation- winter; cold and drought
Habituation

Habituation is when an organism stops
responding to a stimulus after repeated
exposure.
Imprinting

Imprinting is learning
that occurs early in
development that cannot
be changed such as
ducks and geese
recognizing the first
person they see as their
mother.
Classical Conditioning


Stimulus association
Ex: Pavlov’s dogs
Bell=dog salivating because he associates it
with food.
Trial and Error Learning

Rewards and punishments
Basking Shark
