Study Notes
- Animal cells require exchange of materials across plasma membranes.
- Multicellular organization requires access to suitable aqueous environment.
- Saclike body plans allow for diffusion with two cell thick walls.
- Flat organisms have most cells in direct contact with environment.
- Tissue types include epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous.
- Endocrine system releases gradual signaling molecules, while nervous system transmits information for immediate change.
- Animals can be regulators or conformers in response to external changes.
- Thermoregulation can be achieved through insulation, circulatory adaptations, evaporative heat loss, behavioral responses, and metabolic processes.
- Autotrophs harness light energy, while heterotrophs must eat.
- Torpor is a physiological state of decreased activity and metabolism that enables animals to save energy and adapt to difficult conditions, including hibernation.
