Mink Prelab • Safety first! • RESPECT the Mink • External Anatomy • Clean up is crucial!
Mink Body Systems • Homeostasis: regulation of an organism's internal environment to maintain conditions needed for life regardless of external environment
Respiratory System • Continuous exchange of gases for the body • Increases respirations during exercise to allow more oxygen into blood stream • Gets rid of carbon dioxide waste from blood stream
Cardiovascular System • Continuous and controlled movement of blood through all systems that carries nutrients and essential materials for life as waste products are removed • Pumps at a constant rate to keep blood pressure normal • Heart pumps faster to bring more oxygen to muscles when exercising
Heart (Organ)
Cardiac veins (Blood vessels)
Coronary arteries (Blood vessels)
Digestive System • Breaks down food and absorbs nutrients that can be used by the body • Liver releases glucose in between eating meals to keep blood glucose levels constant • Pancreas releases hormones to regulate glucose levels in blood • Small intestine absorbs nutrients from food specifically glucose for cellular respiration
Excretory System • Gets rid of waste • Sweat helps to cool body during exercise • Kidneys filter blood to remove waste products
Nervous System • Homeostasis-controls and regulates other parts of the body • Body temperature starts to drop then nervous system increases body temperature • Regulates heart rate and respirations
Stomach Organ
