Respiratory system û¼ýåÐïͧ
1. Gill
--- Embryonal development of all vertebrates
--- Lateral wall of pharynx
--- Anatomical position
---
Within opercular cavity\
gill chamber\ branchial cavity
--- Respiratory and excretory functions
--- a. Respiration
---
Extraction of O2 \ Excretion of CO2
--- Other respiratory tissues
--- Skin\ Yolk sac\ Fins\ Gill covers
b.
Excretion
(a)
Nitrogenous metabolic wastes
(b)
Exchange of univalent ions
1) Path of the respiratory water
--- a. Teleosts
b. Holocephali
c. Elasmobranchii
2) Internal gill
--- A double row on each bone
(1)
Gill arches
--- 5 pairs in left and right side in osteichthyes
--- 6¡7 pairs in some chondricthyes
(2) Gill raker (Branchictenia, »õÆÄ)
--- No gill rakers in certain fish
--- Located on the medial lining of branchial arches
--- Primary and secondary raker
--- Functions of gill raker
a. Mastication\ Aqusition of foods
b. Protection of gill filaments
(3) Gill filaments
--- No filaments in the last arch of osteichthyes
a. Primary lamellae or filaments
--- Arrangement in a double-row on each bone
b. Secondary lamella or Lamellae branchiales
2) Pseudogill or pseudobranch
--- No pseudobranch in anguilliformes
--- Separate gill located on the medial surface of the opercle or on the anterior wall of
hyomandibular cleft
--- No respiratory function/A few secondary lamella
--- 3 types of pseudobranchs (Birtin's differentiation)
(1) Free type
(2) Covered type
(3) Embedded or submerged type (Cypriniformes)
3) Interbranchial septum(Gill septum)
--- Between anterior and posterior filaments of each branchial arch
--- a. Well-developed interbranchial septum
b. Regressive interbranchial septum
4) External gill
--- During the early development stages of some species, ie., embryonic or larval organs
---
Function
--- a. Respiratory
--- Often not exclusively
b. Nourishing the embryo
--- (a) From yolk of the egg
(b) From special uterine secretions in live-bearing species
2. Accessory respiratory organs
1) Organs of aquatic respiration
--- Young fishes during the gillless phase
---
a. Skin or body surface
b.
Primordial fin
<--- A thin fold of skin
c. Gill cover in holocephali
d. Vascular network which develops around the yolk sac in embryos and larvae
2) Air-breathing organs
a. Lung(Dipnoi\ Polypteryformes)
--- A primitive type similar to that which existed when the lungs and swimbladders first began to
evolve
---> ¨ç Teleostean swimbladder
¨è Tetrapod's lung
--- Dipnoan lung
--- Not very efficient in the excretion of CO2, even in recent dipnoi
--- Electric eels (Electrophorus electricus)
--- The oral cavity(From the air)
--- Taking-up only 78% of the oxygen which the body requires
--- 81% of the CO2 releasing into the water through the skin
b. Swimbladder
--- Never developed in the agnatha\ the lower gnasthomata, ie., the elasmobranchii and the
holocephali
c. Oral and branchial cavities
d. Gill-appendages\ Branchial papillae\ Special labyrinthine organs
e. Stomach\ Intestine
[Vasculature of the gill]
|
|
--- 2 kinds of vasculatures
--- a. Respiratory blood pathway
b. Non-respiratory blood pathway
1) Respiratory blood vasculature
---
Ventral aorta
--->Dorsal aorta
2) Non-respiratory blood pathway
--- Efferent branchial artery (or efferent filamental artery)
---> Along the long axis of filament
--->
Branchial vein (Nutrient vasculature)
