Expectations
• We cannot fulfill our expectations if we do not share them with each other
• AKA: I cannot read your mind, and you cannot read mine
14

My Expectations of You
• We will communicate during normal human hours– You will not expect me to respond to an email
anytime 9 PM to 6 AM. I might, but don’t count on it.
• You will depend on online resources and other students for missed notes– I will not provide anything beyond what is online.
My handwriting is atrocious.

My Expectations of You
• Basic Respect– No texting during class– No disruptive behavior– No texting during class– Attending class and paying attention– No texting during class– Zero tolerance for cheating
16
![Page 17: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What it takes to be a student
• Set aside your ego– Admit ignorance (ask questions)– Drop your cool (ask questions, approach prof)
• Set aside your time– 2.5 study hours for every 1 hour in class– This is your job
– If getting credentials was easy, they would be worthless.
17
![Page 18: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What it takes to be a student
• Respect– Your professor– Your fellow students– Yourself• Take breaks, feed yourself, seek help when needed
• Non-students will not understand– Do yourself a favor and explain to your family,
children, friends, etc. why you need time to study
18

Good Study Habits
• Set aside TIME and SPACE– A regular time, during the day• What takes 1 hour during daylight can take 1.5 at night
– A regular space• Dedicated to studying • Shut out distractions
– Training your mind to process and think
19

Study Breaks Every 15 Minutes

Good Study Habits
• Schedule space in between classes, if possible– Good time to ask a question of the prof/TA– Great time to study and prepare
• “Overprepare”– Be pro-active, not reactive. Bring your tools to
class and be ready to learn
21

Good Study Skills
• Use campus resources– Writing labs, computer labs, tutoring– 10% of Final Project grade is writing• “Can I understand what you are trying to state?”• “Are you stating this in the best way possible?”
• Form a study group– Avoid discussing extraneous topics – this is YOUR
TIME and YOUR MONEY
• Study the hardest topics first22

Good Study Skills
• TIME + ENERGY = LEARNING

Life and Cells
![Page 25: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
List Properties of Life
• Think-Pair-Share

Defining Properties of Life
1. Complex molecular organization– Macromolecules: lipids, nucleic acids, proteins,
carbohydrates
2. Complex, hierarchical organization– Macromolecules -> Cells -> Tissues -> Organs ->
Organ systems -> Organisms -> Populations
3. Reproduction– Heredity and Variation
26

Defining Properties of Life
4. Genetic Code5. Metabolism– Acquiring nutrients from the environment to
obtain energy
6. Development– Characteristic life cycle from gametes to adult
7. Environmental Interaction– Ecology
27

Fundamental Difference Between Animals and Everything Else*
• Obtain their nutrition from other organisms– Heterotrophs
• Multicellular• Typically motile
Autotrophs28
Heterotrophs

Eukaryotic Cells
• Plasma membrane forms cell• Filled with cytoplasm• Membrane-bound nucleus• DNA in nucleus• Organelles– Golgi bodies, ribosomes, mitochondria, lysosomes– Specialized function for types of work

Cellular Differences
• Plants– Cell wall– Vacuole– Chloroplasts
• Animals– No cell wall– Smaller vacuole– No chloroplasts– More mitochondria
31
![Page 32: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Why Is a Sponge an Animal but Fungi Aren’t?
32
1. Although fungi lack cellulose in their cell walls, they still have cell wall structures.
2. All animals are motile, if only at one life stage. Sponge larvae are motile.

Structures of the Animal Cell
• Plasma Membrane• Centrioles• Endoplasmic Reticulum– Ribosomes
• Lysosomes• Mitochondria• Nucleus
33
![Page 34: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Semi-Permeable Plasma Membrane
• Keeps some substances out, lets others in• Lipid-protein composition– Lipids maintain flexibility– Proteins allow substances to cross membrane
• Lipid bilayer– Hydrophobic heads out– Hydrophilic tails in
34

Centrioles
Organize assembly of microtubules during cell division
36
![Page 37: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Synthesizes important macromolecules, such as membranes, proteins, antibodies, carbohydrates, lipids, and hormones.
• Rough ER has ribosomes• Ribosomes assemble proteins
37
![Page 38: Introduction to Zoology Lecture 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062319/555cc4ead8b42a64718b5328/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Lysosome
Via hydrolytic processes (adding water molecule to break bonds), lysosomes break down macromolecules into smaller components
38

Mitochondria
• “Mighty” power house• Cellular respiration – source of all energy in
animal cells• Endosymbiotic theory – mitochondria were
bacteria that entered animal cells early in evolutionary history

Nucleus
• Nuclear envelope– Double membrane
• Chromosomes reside inside nucleus
40

Microscope
• Carry with both hands– One hand on arm and one underneath
• Never use the coarse adjustment while looking at an object under high power– Be careful to not crush the lens against the slide
