Mammals
Classification
•
•
•
•
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Subphylum: Vertebrates
Class: Mammalia
• 20 different Orders
• 4400 Species
– Very diverse class
– Live on every continent & in
every ocean
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
•
1. Endothermic:
– Warm-blooded
• Can live in any climate
• Regulate internal
temperature
• VERY ACTIVE
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
•
1. Endothermic:
– Subcutaneous fat(under our skin)
– Form insulation
– Protection of internal organs
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
•
1. Endothermic:
– Sweat glands or panting, shedding
– To cool down
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
2. Hair/Fur
– Insulation
– Camouflage
– Protection
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
3. Completely divided
4 chambered heart
– Has a complete
septum
• Very efficient heart
b/c clean & dirty
blood never mix
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
4.
Milk production
(mammary glands)modified sweat glands
– Used by the female
to feed young
– Teats (provide milk
from mammary
glands)
Key Mammalian
Characteristics
4. Milk production
Milk contains:
• Protein
• Vitamins
• Fat
• Calcium (sm. amt.)
• Water

6. Specialized Teeth
• Back teeth:
chewing, grinding,
crushing, slicing
• Molars: grind food
• Pre-molars: grind
food
6. Specialized Teeth
• Front Teeth: biting,
cutting, seizing prey
• Canines: grip &
puncture prey
• Incisors: to cut
• 1st place physical
digestion occurs
Teeth and Skull
Did you know that
bone is 5X stronger
than steel?
Teeth and Skull
History of Mammals
• Evolved from mammal-like reptiles
• Mammals & dinosaurs evolved @
same time (mice-size)
• Once dinos went extinct
– most successful at finding food
– became larger
Monotremes
• Oviparity
– Egg layers
– lay 1-2 leathery
eggs per year
– feeds off yolk of egg
– mammary glands
• Live in New Guinea
and Australia
Marsupials
• 280 species of
marsupials
– Ex. Opossum (live in
US), kangaroo, koala
• Viviparity
– Give birth to live young
– Develop in uterus(sm
period of time)
– Under-developed young
crawl out of vagina into
pouch where they feed
off teats
Placental
•
•
19 orders of placental animals
Viviparity
– Give birth to live younguterus, placenta, umbilical
cord (provides nourishment
to fetus from mother)
– Gestation period (time it
takes for full fetal
development)
– Cared for by parents
– Fed w/ mammary glands
until old enough to feed on
own
Gestation Periods
Digestive System – Write Small
**More Info in Unit Review**
• To break down food into
useable molecules=
carried to cells via blood
• 1) Mouth-teeth physical
digestion
• 2) Salivary glands
– Produce saliva
– Contains enzyme
amylase
• Chemical digestion
of carbohydrates
Digestive System
• 3) Esophagus
– Passageway for food from mouth to stomach
– peristalsis: Wave-like motion that pushes food to
stomach
• 4) Cardiac Sphincter
– End of esophagus, beginning of stomach
– Ring of muscle
– Keeps food moving in 1 direction
– “heart burn” if food moves back
into esophagus from sphincter
Digestive System
• 5) Stomach
– Muscular sac which
digests proteins
– Physical digestion in
form of churning
– Chemical in form of HCl
+ pepsin to break down
proteins
– Special lining to protect
from acid; can lead to
ulcer
– Chyme- undigested
food+enzyme+acid
Stomach
Digestive System
•
•
6) Pyloric Sphincter
– Ring of muscle which
keeps food moving from
stomach to sm. intestine
7) Small Intestine
– ~20-21 ft. long
– 3 sections
– Duodenum: 10“ carries
chyme to jejunum
– Jejunum: 8’ carbs,
proteins, lipids digestion;
absorbed into blood
– Ileum: 13’ takes
undigested material to
large intestine
– Has villi
Villi in Small Intestine
-Villi increases surface area
Digestive System
• 8. Large Intestine
–
–
–
–
larger diameter
3 ft. long
to remove excess water
too much water
absorbed=constipation
– too little water
absorbed=diarrhea
• 9. Rectum & Anus
– holds solid waste until
expelled (rectum)
– exit (anus)
Caecum/Appendix
• Caecum-pig
– “dead-end”
– Helps digest plant material
• Appendix-humans
– No apparent function
Rumen
• Sheep, cows
• Regurgitate-cud
Digestive SystemAccessory Organs
• Gall bladder
– Stores bile: for the
digestion of lipids
• Pancreas– pancreatic amylasecarbs
– lipase-lipids
– pepsinogen- proteins
– sends these enzymes to
small intestine
(don’t pass thru)

Respiratory System
**more info in unit review**
• To transports O2 and
CO2 from atmosphere
to the cells
• Two types
– External: air thru
nose to lungs
– Internal: gases w/ in
blood are exchanged
w/ cells
Respiratory System
• Nostrils/Nares- with
hair to trap particles
• Pharynx- food & air
• Epiglottis small flap
to separate food & air
passage
• Trachea- made of rings of
cartilage so it doesn’t collapse
“windpipe”
Salivary Glands and Larynx
Trachea
Respiratory System
• Bronchi-lead to lungs
• Bronchioles- little
tubes
• Alveoli- little air sacs
• Pleura
– Secretes slippery fluid to
reduce friction
– Surrounds the lungs

outside?

Circulatory System
•
•
•
•
Heart is main organ
– Veins-carry blood to heart
– Arteries-carry blood away
from heart
Heart lies in center of chest/
thoracic cavity btw. lungs
– Underneath sternum(breast
bone)
4 chambers
– 2 sides
– Divided by a complete
septum
Spleen-destroys or recycles
old red blood cells
Liver and Spleen
Circulatory System
• Right
– Pumps dirty blood
(CO2) to lungs
– pulmonary
• Left
– Pumps clean blood
(O2) to body
– systemic
60,000 miles of blood vessels

Nervous System
• See
Notesheet
Unfolded Brain Surface Area=1m2
Average Brain Weighs= 3 lbs
Excretory System
• To filter out and
eliminate metabolic
wastes and help
maintain homeostasis
– Gets rid of excess H2O ,
salt, vitamins, toxins,
minerals, and heat
– Nitrogenous Waste:
ammonia converted to
urea in liver
Excretory System
• 2 kidneys-reddish bean
shaped organ
– Size of a clenched fist
– Lie along in small of
back
Structure of a nephron
• Each kidney is made
up of one million+
nephrons (filtering unit)
• Blood enters kidney via
the renal artery
• Blood is pushed
through a nephron
where excess H2O,
salt, toxins, minerals,
urea is filtered out.
Structure of a nephron
• Blood enters the
bowman's capsule
• Capsule filled w/
glomerulus( ball of
blood vessels)
• all substances are
filtered out
• Cleaned blood reenters
cir. system
Structure of a nephron
• Impurities travel along the renal tube
• Some items reenter blood; impurities
empty into the renal pelvis
3 Main Parts of a Kidney
• 3-parts
– Cortex-outer
portion of kidney
– Medulla-inner
region
– Renal pelvishollowed out
area where all
waste gathers.
Urine Formation
• All nephrons empty into
renal pelvis
• Renal pelvis empties
into the
ureter(1/kidney)
• Ureter leads to bladder
and urine exits out the
urethra
Urine Formation
• Average Adult:
– ~1.5-2.3 Liters/day
– Greatest amount of water loss
• Must urinate 500mL to get rid of
toxins
