circulatory
Transports blood, delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, and removes waste products
What is the circulatory system?
This part of the nervous system controls thoughts, memory, and body coordination. It is split into 2 sides, the cerebrum, and the cerebellum.
What is the brain?
The function of the endocrine system
What is to make and release hormones directly into the blood?
The part that transfers oxygen, nutrients, and removes metabolic waste and carbon dioxide.
What is the placenta?
These receptors respond to heat and cold
What are Thermoreceptors?
The four chambered muscular organ that is enclosed in a protective sac
What is the heart?
Acts as the main cable. It runs down the back inside the spine and passes messages back and forth between the brain and the body
What is the spinal cord?
Hormones functions in the body
What is to regulate growth, manage energy, balance fluids, and control feeling/sleep?
A Y- shaped organ designed to carry a litter of puppies.
What is the uterus?
These receptors respond to physical deformation of the cell membrane from mechanical energy or pressure and detect touch, sound, and balance, among many other sensory systems.
What are Mechanoreceptors?
Vessels that return deoxygenated blood back to the heart
What are veins?
Reaches out from the brain and spinal cord to every part of the skin, muscles, and organs.
What are branching nerves?
The amount of key parts to the endocrine system
What is 6?
The cycle a dog goes through about one to two times a year
What is the estrus cycle?
These receptors respond to “noxious” stimuli, or essentially anything that causes tissue damage and detect tissue damage, not detect pain.
What are Nociceptors?
Vessels that carry oxygen rich blood away from the heart
What are arteries?
Connects the brain to the eyes, ears, nose, and head muscles
what are cranial nerves?
. The names of all key parts in the endocrine system
What are the Hypothalamus, Pituitary gland, Adrenal glands, Pancreas, and Gonads?
The part of the uterus where the horns and upper half are
What is the corneus?
These receptors allow animals to taste and smell and are likely the oldest of all sensory receptors.
What are Chemoreceptors?
Allow the actual exchange of gases and nutrients with body tissue
What are Capillaries?
Branches out from the spinal cord to the limbs, skin, torso, and internal organs
What are the spinal nerves?
The main function of the pancreas
What is to control blood sugar levels?
The place where eggs/ova are produced
What are the ovaries?
These receptors respond to radiant energy (visible light in most vertebrates; visible as well as UV light in many insects).
What are Photoreceptors?
