Primary Facilitator
Dr. Nickie Cauthen, Assistant Professor of Biology, Clayton College and State University

Secondary Facilitator
Dr. C. Blaine Carpenter, Professor of Biology, Clayton College and State University

Each lesson consists of 10 activities.   We suggest that you proceed through the lesson in the order that the activities are presented.  Should you NOT complete a particular activity, remember to go back to it as soon as you can.

Send Dr. Cauthen an E-mail as soon as you know you have a question... or you may put a message on the Bulletin Board on WebCT.  If you need help with WebCT, you can get a tour at:

   to Lesson 11!

Animal transport systems enable the cells to receive adequate oxygen and nutrients, and to be rid of waste materials as well. Transport systems carry materials that cells need to them, and wastes they don't need are carried away.  The transport system therefore moves materials from one place to another in an organism.  The transport system includes the blood, blood vessels, and the heart or pump. In this lesson we will compare several kinds of animal transport systems, and how these systems
are well suited for the needs of the animal.  We will also focus on the study of the vertebrate heart and cardiovascular system.

III. Key Terms

Familiarize yourself with the key terms below.  They are used in the text, the tutorial, the Interactive Study Partner, and the Cycles of Life Video.
 

blood	heart	blood vessels	closed circulatory system
capillaries	pulmonary circuit	systemic circuit	open circulatory system
arteries	plasma	red blood cells	white blood cells
veins	hemoglobin	stem cells	agglutination
cardiac muscle	electrocardiogram	arterioles	venules
aorta	coronary circulation	atrium	ventricle
atrioventricular valve	semilunar valve	systole	diastole
cardiac cycle	SA node	AV node	blood pressure

IV.Text Pages 

Read Chapter 23 in Biology, Concepts and Connections by Campbell, Mitchell, and Reece.

V. Interactive Study Partner CD-Rom 

Put your Interactive Study Partner CD-Rom into the CD player on your computer.

• Proceed to Activities
• Choose Chapter 23
• Choose

23A Cardiovascular System Structure
23B Path of Blood Flow
23C Cardiovascular System Function
• Take the quiz.
• Record your results on the quiz in your journal and review the items that you missed on the CD-ROM, in the tutorial, or in the textbook.

VI. Cycles of Life 

Watch Lesson 17, Animal Circulation.

Click here for a viewing guide for the video. Answer the questions in the viewing guide before proceeding.

VII. Web Work 

To refine your studies you will need to go to the Internet (WWW), and work with more sources.  Proceed to the following.

1. Click on the button to go to   on the Internet.

   • Go to the Biocoach and work through Cardiovascular I:  The Beating Heart.  Go to the Activity Map and complete everything.
   • Go to Cardiovascular II:  The Vascular Highway
     Again, complete everything on the Activity Map.

2. Read the summary of Chapter 23 from the Campbell Web Site
3. Online Biology Book (Very good):  Circulatory System
4. A Summary Study of Blood
5. The Heart: A Virtual Exploration
6. Inner Body: Cardiovascular System

 VIII. Tutorial 

You should complete the Web Work before the tutorial.

Click on the tutorial button to guide you with the concepts.  Work problems in your notebook, and take notes as you would in class.   Save the tutorial at least until the next major test;  then you won't have to transfer it again.  The tutorials will not fit onto a floppy disk;  you will need to save it to your hard drive.

Dr. Cauthen if you need help!!

Lesson 11 Tutorial

You may open the tutorial with Internet Explorer or you may save the tutorial to your hard drive.  You can then view the file in PowerPoint and print it out if you wish.  You must use all links, and make notes as you go through the tutorial.  Please have your CD in the drive while you work on the tutorial.  You might decide to review from it.

Warning:  Downloading the tutorials using a modem may be slow.

IX. Study Guide and Practice Tests

Study Guides and Practice Tests enable you to assess yourself and your progress.

• Review Chapter 23 questions that pertain to genetics in the Study Guide .
• Review the quiz from the CD-Rom, Interactive Study Partner.
• Take the practice quiz on the Campbell Web site.

The assignment for this Lesson will be combined with Lesson 12.  It will be posted on April 19, 2002   The Assignment will be DUE on April 23, 2002 at 11:55 PM.
