(E1) a. Blood can flow in any direction within a blood vessel. b. It requires less blood volume t...

control system components of homeostasis - (1) sensor (protein based) (2) controller (3) effector (changes physiological variable) physical factors of animals - (1) energy input (cost/benefit ratio) (2) waste removal (3) growth and development (4) impacts of physics, chemistry, geometry on body form convergent evolution - organisms independently evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments limited solutions to the same problem analogous structures - flig...

three frameworks of comparative systems - -Form & function of the parts under investigation -Phylogenetic diversity & evolution of the system in different taxa -Ecophysiology Tech designs vs living systems - -Technological advancement is an evolutionary progression -Organisms are impressive, beautiful & awe-inspiring >Exceedingly complex in architecture & functional adaptations >Appropriate to speak of life forms having "design" Emergent properties of animal physiology - - Atoms ...

what animals must do? - - Mechanism for excreting waste - Mechanism for development and growth - Energy input Disadvantage of multicellularity - Need special cell/cell connections Need for cell/cell communication Need system for distribution of nutrients What traits to animals share? - Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, able to move Why is the fossil record incomplete? - Needs to die near water, fossilization process needs to be in a situation where there's no oxygen present, rapidly covered in...

Name an animal that has neither a circulatory system nor a respiratory system and relies solely on cutaneous diffusion for gas exchange. How is this adequate for its survival? - Small and thin animals, like flatworms and horsehair worm parasites, have no respiratory or circulatory systems and solely rely on cutaneous/cuticle diffusion through water or air. Examples of respiratory structures of aquatic animals - bulk flow (sponges, cnidarians), gills, water vascular system, arborescent respi...

_______________ have a single or multiple solute binding pockets and after solute binding, a reversible conformation movement exposes the solute-binding pocket to the other face of the membrane. - transporters Because of the factors affecting diffusion, H2O will move from an area of higher concentration (low osmolarity) to an area of lower concentration (higher osmolarity) if the cell membrane is permeable to H2O [6.03]. The movement of H2O in this way is a very powerful force, capable of r...

How is filter feeding an example of ecosystem engineering? - helps clarify oceans Oysters in Chesapeake Bay filter the water Disadvantages to Feeding - must have larger mouth and machinery to breakdown food particles requires time so pathway is longer Where is the fuel from food acquired? - chemical bonds energy was used to make bonds, and will be released when it is broken Homeostasis - maintenance of internal environment Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) - amount of energy expended when at res...

Self-perception theory - The theory that when our attitudes and feelings are uncertain or ambiguous, we infer these states by observing our behavior and the situation in which it occurs Random assignment - The process of assigning participants to the conditions of an experiment such that all persons have the same chance of being in a given condition Hindsight Bias - The tendency to overestimate, after learning an outcome, one's ability to have foreseen the outcome Social Desirability Bias...

social psychology - the scientific study of how people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are influenced by other people evolutionary perspective - - theorizes that humans have deep-rooted physical and psychological dispositions that aid survival and reproduction - interested in how humans are alike, regardless of culture - also predicts and appreciates differences between people control - - experiments can take place in a setting where the researcher can control many potential third va...

Evolutionary Perspective - social behaviors are rooted in unintentional ways that helped our ancestors survive & reproduce - NATURAL SELECTION, MOTIVATION, REPRODUCTION - GENES/ADAPTATIONS Theory - scientific explanation based on theories based on observations; unify findings and help guide future research Four Major Theoretical Perspectives (all correct) - 1. Sociocultural 2. Evolutionary 3. Social Learning 4. Social Cognitive Sociocultural Perspective - prejudices, preferences, & pol...

motives associated with self-presentation - appearing liable, appearing competent, appearing like you have power/status qualities of a self-monitor - can perceive others' emotions well, can mimic emotions and behaviors, are more comfortable acting inconsistently with their own attitudes, often rise to leadership positions cutting off reflected failure (CORFing) - distancing self from those who make us look bad by association ex: not as vocal about being FSU student after a loss basking ...

Displacement - is the channeling of aggression towards something that had nothing to do with the original cause of frustration Implicit Association Test - Studies on approach speeds of different races show that people appear to walk slower towards us if they are from races we subconsciously do not like. (They are actually not walking faster, we are just more attuned to their presence.) Institutional Practices (Sexism) - (which may not be motivated by prejudice at all) that treat unfairly p...

Role - expectation held by the group for how members in particular positions ought to behave; a fraternity president may be expected to set the agenda for chapter meetings and confirm regularly with other Greek organizations, whereas a treasurer may be expected to collect dues and balance the bank account Realistic Group Conflict Theory - proposal that intergroup conflict, and negative prejudices and stereotypes, emerge out of actual competition between groups for desired resources; people ...
