Animals have structure called organs

Tissues- group of cells that performs a common function.

CELL - TISSUES – ORGAN - ORGAN SYSTEM – ORGANISM

Heterotrophs- Organisms that can’t make their own food like animals.

Autotrophs- Organisms that can make their own food like plants.

Herbivores—Plant eating animals

Carnivores- Flesh eating animals

Omnivores- Both eating plant/flesh

Asexual—Reproduce without the use of gametes or sex cells (e.g. starfish, hen)

Sexual- Reproduce with the use of gametes and sex cells

Fragmentation- Organisms break into two or more fragments that develop into new individual.

--Animals move from place to place for food and habitat. They also need to find mates and need to
escape danger as well.

Histology- Study of animal and plant tissues

Microtome- instrument used to cut tissues into ultra thin sections

4 TYPES OF TISSUES FOUND IN ANIMALS:

Epithelial tissues- The inner wall is lined by columnar epithelial cells that absorbed digested food

Connective tissues- responsible to transport nutrients and proteins throughout the body

-Transport absorbed food (e.g veins)


Muscular tissues- The smooth muscle tissue which is responsible for peristaltic movement (para mas

Nervous tissues- transmit signals from the brain

-THE STOMACH IS SURROUNDED OF SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE

-TISSUES IN THE STOMACH’S COMMON GOAL IS TO DIGEST FOOD

-11 TO 12 ORGAN SYSTEM IN HUMAN BODY

Extensor- Causes muscles to straighten

Flexor- Causes muscles to bend

Ingestion- intake of food in the body

Digestion- Dissolving of food through mechanical and chemical breakdown of food molecules into
soluble and diffusible molecules then can be absorbed by the body cells.

Absorption- Process where the digestive food materials or nutrients are taken by the cells

Elimination- Also known as egestion

-Passing/elimination of materials/nutrients that are not absorbed.

Lymphocytes- Also known as White Blood cells

Respiration- How the body gets oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide

Breathing- Act of taking in oxygen into the lungs and releasing carbon dioxide out of the lungs.

First phase- breathing covers the first phase of respiration
