The Reproductive System What is it? The reproductive system is a collection of organs that work together for the purpose of producing a new life The major organs of the reproductive system include the external genitalia and internal organs‚ including gonads that produce gamete‚ which is a cell that fuses with another cell during conception in organisms that reproduce sexually. Substances such as fluids‚ hormones‚ and pheromones are also important to the effective functioning of the reproductive

Pig and Human Anatomy In today’s standard anatomy classes- among other science classes- pigs are the most commonly dissected mammal because they have the most similar anatomy to a human. They have the same organs and many of the same muscles pertaining to similar human functions. When dissecting pigs it is important to remember the basic directional points. For example‚ median means to the middle‚ lateral means to the sides‚ dorsal is the belly-side‚ etc. It is also important to have lab safety

flexed or bent position. The basicranium is the floor of the brain ’s case. With the basicranium flexed‚ the larynx (voice box) is low in the neck so we can produce more speech sounds. The basicranium is an indicator of how well an animal can articulate sounds. Other evolutionary‚ corporeal indications are the position and shape of the hyoid bone that anchors muscles connected to the jaw‚ larynx‚ and tongue. The Broca ’s area of the brain controls these muscles as they function to produce speech sounds

inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. What makes up the Respiratory System? The human respiratory system consists of the nose‚ nasal cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ smaller conducting passageways (bronchi and bronchioles)‚ and lungs. The Nose or Nasal Cavity As air passes through the nasal cavities it is warmed and humidified‚ so that air that reaches the lungs is warmed and moist. The Nasal airways

Digestive System Study Guide 1. Define the term digestion and explain its significance. The chemical and mechanical process of breaking down food and its absorption. Its essential to maintaining life. 2. Distinguish between mechanical digestion and chemical digestion. Chemical digestion is where complex food molecules are broken down to the basic building blocks by enzymes. Mechanical digestion is chewing‚ churning and segmentation. 3. Discuss the five digestive processes that overview the many functions

the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. The respiratory tract is responsible for taking the gases to and from the exchange surfaces of the lungs. Many parts play a role in this process‚ such as; nose‚ nasal cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ bronchi‚ bronchioles‚ and alveoli. Task The anatomy and physiology of the respiratory system are extremely important to the human body. It will give you a broad understanding of how the body obtains oxygen‚ removes waste products
