Introduction to Human Anatomy Lecture 46 Notes: The Rest of the Animal Kingdom

Overview

I’ve had my eye on this lecture for a long time.  What the hell – let’s try it.  This is a monster lecture at 85 minutes.

Details

Mollusks are mussels, squids, octopus.  Anthropoda is the insects.

We’re going to explore the invertebrates today.  First, the lower invertebrates:

Porifera means to have pores and openings.  Sponges, the most primitive of all animals.  Filter the water.  Sesile – don’t move.  Internal skeleton.  Baby sponges bud off the body.  It does not photosynthesize.

Cnideria.  The hollow gut animals.  Jellyfish and coral.  Tenticles, radial symmetry.  Only one hole for excretion and food.

Platyphopheras are flat worms.  Tapeworm.  Nutrients are absorbed through the body.  An intermediate host like cows are often used.  Don’t eat infected meat.  Cook it well.  Don’t put human waste where you raise livestock.

Nemotodoes have a mouth and an anus.  All animals before this were proteostomes – anus mouths.  The pin worm that lives around the rectum.  Use scotch tape to tap the anus, look for scratching the butt.  Trigonosis and undercooked pork.

Mollusks means soft body.  60K species, most have shells.  Three types: snails, clams, and the octopus.  A bivalve has two halfs, 2 parts to the clam shell.  Clam chowder is the muscular foot that burrows into the steak.  Shells are usually made of calcium carbonate.  Pearls can be made at oyster farms.  The octopus has 8 legs, the squid has 10 legs.

Segmented worms or annalids.  Earthworms.  Repetition of body segments is memerism.  The clitelum is for reproduction and is larger and smooth.  Earthworms are hermaphrodites.  Earthworms loosen and aerate the soil.  Leeches are parasites, a mouth at one end, an anus at the other.  An ecto parasite lives on the surface.  Leeches used in medicine post surgery for anti coagulant and to increase blood flow.  Black eyes could be treated with a bottle of leeches.

Arthropoda or jointed foot.  Three classes of crustacia, arachnidea, insect.  Arthropods have exoskeletons, molting.  Arachnids are ticks, mites, scorpions and spiders – 8 walking legs.  Female black widows have a red hourglass on their underside.  In the insect world, the female is usually larger than the male.  The thread of a web is stronger than steel for its size.  Crustacia are crayfish, crabs, lobsters.  Insecta – there are most species of this than any other species 800K.  Arachnids have 8 legs, crustaea 10, insects 6.

Echinodermata or spiny skin.  Starfish, sand dollar, urchin.  Radial symmetry.  You cannot cut them into two halfs.

Keep the dogma simple. Make only 1 or 2 points.

Be forthright and powerfully direct. Speak only in the telling or ordering mode.

As much as possible, reduce concepts down into stereotypes which are black and white.

Speak to people’s emotions and stir them constantly.

Use lots of repetition; repeat your points over and over again.

Forget literary beauty, scientific reasoning, balance, or novelty.

Focus solely on convincing people and creating zealots.

Find slogans which can be used to drive the movement forward.

the trans isomer has the higher melting point; the cis isomer has the higher boiling point.

Why is the boiling point of the cis isomers higher?  There must be stronger intermolecular forces between the molecules of the cis isomers than between trans isomers.

Why is the melting point of the cis isomers lower?

You might have thought that the same argument would lead to a higher melting point for cis isomers as well, but there is another important factor operating. In order for the intermolecular forces to work well, the molecules must be able to pack together efficiently in the solid.

Trans isomers pack better than cis isomers. The “U” shape of the cis isomer doesn’t pack as well as the straighter shape of the trans isomer.  The poorer packing in the cis isomers means that the intermolecular forces aren’t as effective as they should be and so less energy is needed to melt the molecule – a lower melting point.

‘evergreen plant is a plant that has leaves in all seasons. This contrasts with deciduous plants, which completely lose their foliage during the winter or dry season

more branched isomers tend to have lower boiling points.

liquid boils when its vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. Vapor pressure is determined by the kinetic energy of molecules.

Vapor pressure is caused by an equilibrium between molecules in the gaseous state and molecules in the liquid state.

    At first I wasn’t sure I would find this useful, but it has some great information about the transmission of parasites.
