Chapter 24 Lecture Outline See PowerPoint Image Slides for all figures and tables pre-inserted into PowerPoint without notes. 24-1 Exchanging Materials: Basic Principles Large, multicellular organisms need a way to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the cells deep within tissues.

The Heart 24-12 Pumps the blood Generates the pressure necessary to move blood through vessels – Blood must flow to move nutrients to tissues and waste away from tissues. – Heart must repeatedly contract in order to keep blood moving.

Breathing System Regulation Breathing is the process of moving air into and out of the lungs. Involves the diaphragm – – – 24-34 A large muscle that separates the chest cavity (containing lungs) from the abdominal cavity When contracted, the diaphragm moves down Creates negative pressure in the chest cavity Pulls air into the lungs When relaxed, the diaphragm resumes its normal position Generates positive pressure in the chest cavity Pushes air out of the lungs Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Breathing Movements 24-35 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Breathing During Exercise Exercise increases the body’s demand for oxygen. – – 24-36 Requires faster gas exchange in lungs Accomplished by Increased breathing rate – Can involve greater diaphragm contraction to pull in more air Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Breathing During Exercise Can also involve contraction of abdominal muscles to fully empty the lungs – This happens when carbon dioxide concentration increases in the blood and blood pH. – 24-37 Sensed by brain, then brain causes increased contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles Increased air exchange volume in each breath Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. The Control of Breathing Rate 24-38 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Lung Function Lungs are specialized so that blood and air can come very close together. – – – – 24-39 This facilitates gas exchange between them. Blood flows through capillaries in the lungs that come very close to the air in the alveoli. Oxygen and carbon dioxide cross the alveoli and capillary walls. Therefore, the surface area of the alveoli must be very large (collectively). This is why there are so many alveoli. Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. The Association of Capillaries with Alveoli 24-40 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Lung Function Gas exchange is facilitated by blood and air movement. – – – 24-41 Blood enters the lungs high in carbon dioxide and low in oxygen. Air enters the lungs high in oxygen and low in carbon dioxide. Therefore, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood to the air and oxygen diffuses from the air to the blood. Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Disrupting Lung Function Interfering with blood flow or gas exchange will reduce the efficiency of the organism. – – – 24-42 A poorly pumping heart reduces the amount of blood that is sent to the lungs. Constriction of bronchioles (asthma) reduces the amount of air that can enter the alveoli. Reducing the number of alveoli (emphysema) reduces the surface area for gas exchange.
