The cardiovascular system is the movement of blood being permitted around the body to vital organs and muscles with the components of the heart‚ blood‚ and blood vessels combining together to make the cardiovascular system work. The cardiovascular systems is vital in the human body as it promotes the body’s delivery system for blood being pumped around the entire body for survival. The respiratory system also has importance in the body as it is the system to transport air into the lungs to aid the

Biology Mammals Grazing Herbivore: Herbivores digestive systems can consist of one of two types of insides‚ it can be a foregut fermenter where the Foregut Fermeters has two parts (a tubiform and a sacciform fore stomach) containing lots of microbes. The stomach is bigger than that of a hindgut fermenter considering its usually a bigger animal‚ the stomach has an extra chamber to help devour glucose from the cellulose (the herbivores diet is largely cellulose and is broken down by the microbes)

Teeth * Tears and grind the food‚ breaking it down into smaller fragments. * By the age of 21‚ two sets of teeth have been formed. Deciduous teeth (baby teeth or milk teeth) * Begins to erupt around 6 months ‚ and a baby has a full set of (20 teeth) by the age of 2 years. Permanent Teeth * Enlarge and develop‚ the roots of the milk are reabsorbed‚ and between the ages of 6 and 12 they loosen and fall out. * The teeth are classified according to shape and function as incisors

Human Body May 30‚ 2010 The Cardiovascular and Muscular Systems Organ system is a group of organs that work together to perform a certain task. Humans have a variety of systems due to the complexity of the species’ organism. The human body consists of biological systems‚ that consist of organs‚ that consist of tissues‚ that consist of cells and connective tissue. Although an organ has a specific function‚ organs also function as part of a group. The organ system is the organizational unit

AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology‚ and explain their relationship using an example of a human structure with its corresponding function. Anatomy: The branch of science concerned with the bodily structure of humans‚ animals‚ and other organisms‚ esp. as revealed by dissection. Physiology: The branch of biology that deals with the normal functions of living organisms and their parts. Anatomy and physiology are connected in the way

Metabolism is the process of getting chemical energy from larger molecules in food and breaking them down into smaller molecules by the use of enzymes (which are biological catalysts that are used to speed up a chemical reactions)‚ the circulatory system then transports the nutrients to the cells. They’re two types of metabolism which are Catabolism (Aerobic Metabolism) and Anabolism (Anaerobic Metabolism). Catabolism (Aerobic Metabolism) occurs when there is plentiful supply of glucose and oxygen

Digestive Systems in Different Animals Different species of animals have different digestive systems which are adapted to their unique requirements. The type of food‚ method of food gathering and energy needs are some factors that influence the type of digestive system an animal needs in order to survive. Herbivores have a more specialised digestive system than that of a carnivore because it is more difficult to digest vegetation than meat. The teeth are flat so that grass and plant material can
