Digestive system
this system is responsible for the breaking down of food and nutrient absorbtion
endocrine system
The system that are glands that produce and receive hormones to produce a certain effect
circulatory system
This system that carries oxygen to cells and carbon dioxide away
respiratory system
This is where oxygen and carbon dioxide is exchanged
skeletal system
provides support for the entire body also produces red blood cells
reproduction system(male)
This system produces sperm
reproduction system(female)
This system contains the eggs and is where pregnancy occurs
nervous system
The controls for the entire body
stomach
in cattle this organ is made of 4 parts
rumen
largest section of the stomach, it eructates the food( the food gets chewed twice
Reticulum
this is the honey-combed shaped part of the stomach, it keeps the food in the rumen and mixes it with water and saliva to make the right consistancy when it reaches the omasium
omasium
this part of the stomach is the main site for water absorbtion
abomasum
this is the "true stomach", and is similar to the simple stomach and the main site for digestion
small intestine
absorbs nutrients from the food and breaks down proteins, starch, and fats
large intestine
absorbs more of the water, and is used for storage
rectum
passes waste out of the body
bladder
stores liquid waste
pituitary gland
controls growth of bone, maternal behavior, and reproduction, and is the master gland
hypothalamus
in the endocrine system, it controls hunger, sleep, and body temp, and controls the pituitary gland
pancreas
produces insulin and glucagons
adrenal gland
controls adrenaline
thyroid gland
helps in digestion and in storage of calcium, also makes amino acid hormones
mouth
grinds the food down
esophagus
pushes food to the stomach
cranial vena cava
carries deoxygenated blood to right atrium
right atrium
holds deoxygenated blood
caudal vena cava
carries blood from the lower body to the heart
heptic veins
carry blood to the liver and transport drained blood
heptic arteries
gives blood to the liver
thoracic aorta
supplies blood to the ribs and chest structures
brachiocephalic trunk
transmits blood to the brain and head
kidney
extracts waste from the blood
renal vein
drain blood from the kidney
liver
filters and processes blood circulates, and creates bile, blood proteins, and stores glucose
ovary
these make the eggs and produce hormones
vagina
the flattened tube between cervix and vulva
vulva
enterance into the reproduction system
cervix
valve between the uterus and vagina that is made of muscular folds that slow down invading materials and it only opens to let sperm in and the baby out
uterus
were the fetus grows
uterine horn
extensions of the oviducts
oviducts
(fallopian tubes) carry eggs from the ovaries and only open for ovulation and insemination
infundibulum
funnels the eggs from the ovaries to the oviducts
frollicle
this is the cavity that holds the egg
testicles
produce the sperm and male horrmones
epididymus
packages the sperm
vas deferens
carries the sperm to the body cavity towards urethra
ampulle
were sperm is mixed with a nutritive substance
heart
this is the pump that pushes the blood through the body and has 4 chambers in cattle
ureter
carries the wastes from the kidney to the bladder
urethera
carries liquid wast out of the body
right ventricle
pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs
left atrium
holds oxygenated blood
left ventricle
pumps oxygenated blood to the body
irregular bones
support the central nervous system
long bones
support columns
short bones
absorb shock in knees
sesamoid bones
protect tendons
flat bones
protect vital organs
pneumatic bones
facial bones with cavities
epinephrine
causes for immediate reaction
gall bladder
stores bile and secretes it into the small intestine
order of the ruminant stomach
1.rumen, 2.reticulum, 3.omasum, 4. abomasum
