Compare and Contrast life and non-life
What is physiology? 2. How does physiology unite many areas of biology? 3. Compare and contrast life and non-life. 4. Compare and contrast a plant and an animal. 5. What are two features that help us define complexity? 6. What are the characteristics that define an animal?
7. How do these characteristics influence the physiolosy of animals? 8. Why study physiology in a comparative manner, that is, why do we studya range of animals with respect to their physiology? 9. What are the characteristics that define life? 10. What are two functions of compartmentalization? 11. What is important about collagen? 12. What are various ways that compartmentalization is established in animals? 13. We looked at bifocals in man, beetles and jellyfish.
How does this relate to the messa in Figure? In other words, what does this say about the importance of (name the function) of this anatomical corvergence across these three phyla? 14. What are some of the ways an individual’s phenotype can change? 15. What is the difference between a physiological regulator and a physiological conform Give an example of each. 16. Compare and contrast unicellular / multicellular. 17. What is important about collagen?
18. Name three aspects of being eukaryotic that help us define animal physiology 19. Name three aspects of multiceliularity that help us define animal physiology: 20. Name three aspects of heterotrophy that help us define animal physiology. 21. What are the benefits and costs of conformation? 22. What are the benefits and costs of regulation?
23. What is the main the benefit of physiological regulation? 24. Be able to draw a graph similar to Fig.orto illustrate conformity and/or regulation. Which graph represents homeostasis? Why 25. What does Figureindicate about salmon? 26. Who are Claude Bernard and Walter Cannon? What is their importance? 27. Why does homeostasis require negative feedback control?
