New cards

diffusion is rapid only over small distances

two solutions to this?

thin surfaces decrease diffusion distance

circulatory system to move substances

2
New cards

Cnidarians, which include the hydras and jellyfish, do not have a distinct circulatory system. How have they solved the problem of exchange?

Thin body wall allow oxy to diffuse in and co2 out easily

gastrovascular cavity extends through body, nutrient are close to cells

3
New cards

Flatworms (phylum Platyhelminthes) such as planaria have a slightly different solution to this diffusion problem. What is it?

dorsoventrally flattened body allows nutrient from outside to diffuse in easily

4
New cards

Why do large animals need a circulatory system instead of relying on diffusion alone?

cells are too far from outside environment=diffusion slow over long distances

5
New cards

What is the main function of the circulatory system in animals?

move nutrients quickly between exchange organs

6
New cards

Contrast open circulatory systems with closed circulatory systems.

open=fluid is hemolymph, pumped by heart into body spaces that directly surround organ

closed=fluid is blood, contained in vessels, exchange through capillary walls

7
New cards
