SUPPORT AND
MOVEMENT IN PLANTS
AND ANIMALS
aogagah@yahoo.com
DEFINNITION OF TERMS
• Support – this is the ability of an
organism to bear its own mass/weight
and maintain its body form
• Movement- this is the process by which
an organism displaces parts of its body
or the whole of its body from one place to
another.
aogagah@yahoo.com
Types of movement
• Locomotion: this is the process by which
an organism displaces the whole of its
body from one place to another.
• Localized movement: this is the process
by which an organism displaces parts of
its body from one place.
aogagah@yahoo.com
Levels of movement in plants
• Cellular level e.g. swimming of the male
gametes in bryophytes and
pteridophytes and growth of the pollen
tube to bring about fertilization
• Organ level e.g. tropic and nastic
movements
aogagah@yahoo.com
NECESSITY FOR MOVEMENT IN PLANTS
• Swimming of the male gametes in bryophytes and
pteridophytes and growth of the pollen tube to
bring about fertilization
• Nastic and tropic responses help plants to obtain
resources from the environment such as water,
light and nutrients
• Movement enables plants to escape harmful
stimuli such as high temperatures
aogagah@yahoo.com
NECESSITY FOR SUPPORT IN PLANTS
• Enables plants withstand the forces in the
environment
• Enables plants to carry their mass and the
mass of the animals that climb on them
• Enables plants to withstand strong wind and
storms
• Helps in exposing leaves for photosynthesis
• Enables for efficient gaseous exchange

TRANSVERSE SECTION OF A
MONOCOT STEM
• Draw the internal structure of a
monocot stem
aogagah@yahoo.com
SUPPORT TISSUES IN
PLANTS
• Parenchyma
• Collenchyma
• Sclerenchyma
• Xylem vessels and xylem
tracheids
aogagah@yahoo.com
PARENCHYMA
• The parenchymatous tissue is a storage
tissue which helps in the storage of
water and food.
• It is a specialized tissue made of long
and cylindrical cells
• Helps in providing support by gaining
water and becoming turgid
aogagah@yahoo.com
COLLENCHYMA
• Found beneath the epidermis
• Similar in shape to the parenchyma
cells
• Provides support to the plant due to
the presence of cellulose
aogagah@yahoo.com
SCLERENCHYMA
• Found in close association with the
vascular bundles
• Provide support to the plant due to
the deposition of lignin which is
tough and rigid
aogagah@yahoo.com
XYLEM VESSELS AND XYLEM
TRACHEIDS
• Xylem tissue helps in the transportation
of the absorbed water up the plant. It is
therefore a transport tissue
• It also helps in providing support to the
plant due to presence of lignin i.e. they
have thick lignified walls.
• The pattern of lignification varies giving
rise to various types of lignificationaogagah@yahoo.com
WILTING
• This is the process by which a
plant loses more water than the
absorbed water causing the plant
cells to become flaccid.
aogagah@yahoo.com
TYPES OF XYLEM VESSELS
• PITTED
• ANNULAR
• SCALARIFORM
• RETICULATE
• SPIRAL
aogagah@yahoo.com
SUPPORT AND MOVEMENT IN
ANIMALS
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Animals need support due to the
fluid nature of their protoplasm.
Multicellular animals require a
rigid framework to support their
bodies off the ground and to
maintain their shapes. This is
performed by the skeleton
aogagah@yahoo.com
aogagah@yahoo.com
aogagah@yahoo.com
IMPORTANCE OF SUPPORT
AND MOVEMENT IN
AIMALS
aogagah@yahoo.com
MOVEMENT
• Enables the organisms to obtain
food, shelter and mates
• Enables animals to escape predators
• Enables animals to escape harsh/
hostile environmental conditions
aogagah@yahoo.com
SUPPORT
• Helps in the maintainance of the body
shape
• Helps in supporting the body off the
ground
• Forms a rigid framework for the body
against forces such as compression
and tension
aogagah@yahoo.com
FUNCTIONS OS THE SKELETON
• Support- the skeleton forms a rigid
framework for the body against forces such
as compression and tension. This helps the
body to maintain its body shape and
supporting the body off the ground
• Protection- offers protection to the delicate
internal organs against physical injury. The
skull protects the brain; the vertebral column
protects the spinal cord while the ribcage
protects the lungs and the heart.
aogagah@yahoo.com
Surport cont.
• Attachment of the skeletal muscles- provides
points for the attachment of the skeletal muscles
which contract and relax bringing about
movement.
• Production of white blood cells and red blood
cells- the white and the red bone marrow produce
the white and the red blood cells respectively.
• Act as levers by which the body moves- long
bones such as the femur and humerus act as
levers by which the body moves.
• Storage of calcium and phosphorous
• Provides shock absorbing mechanismaogagah@yahoo.com
TYPES OF SKELETONS
• Exoskeleton
• Hydroskeleton/ hydrostatic
skeleton
• Endoskeleton
aogagah@yahoo.com
HYDROSKELETON
• This is a type of skeleton consisting
of a fluid under pressure. The fluid is
surrounded by circular and
longitudinal muscles. This type of
skeleton is found in soft bodied
organisms e.g. earthworms. This
enables them to move and burrow
into the soil
aogagah@yahoo.com
EXOSKELETON
• This is a type of skeleton found on the
outside of the organism and is made
of chitin secreted by the epidermis. It
is sclerotized or hardened with
proteins. It is found in the phylum
arthropoda mainly in the class
insecta.
aogagah@yahoo.com
Functions of the exoskeleton
• It is impervious/ impermeable to water and
therefore protects the animal from
dehydration or desiccation.
• Provides protection against microbial
infection
• Provides protection against mechanical
injury
• Provides points for muscle attachment hence
movement.
• Supports the body off the ground i.e. supports
tissues and organs
aogagah@yahoo.com
NB
• The exoskeleton prevents increase in
the size of the organism and
therefore it must be shed
periodically a process called
moulting/ ecdysis.
aogagah@yahoo.com
ENDOSKELETON
• This is a type of skeleton which is
internal to the muscles. It is made up
of bones and cartilage. It is found in
the vertebrates.
• It is made up of living tissue
aogagah@yahoo.com
Bone Cartilage
It is rigid It is flexible
Has calcium and
phosphorous
deposits which
makes it very hard
Lack calcium and
phosphorous
deposits hence not
very hard
Made up of bone
cells called
osteoblasts
Made up of
chondroblast cells
aogagah@yahoo.com
NB
phosphorous confers toughness
while calcium confers hardness
aogagah@yahoo.com
MOVEMENT IN AN INSECT
• Some insects walk, others fly and others jump.
Walking is achieved by the coordinated activity of
the legs in an insect. An insect’s legs consist of
hollow tubes whose walls are made up of
exoskeleton.
• The first part of the leg called the coxa is joined to
the body by a ball and socket joint. All the other
parts are hinge joints. Movement is brought about
by the extensor and flexor muscles which contract
and relax antagonistically.
aogagah@yahoo.com
• The flying insects use wings. Flying is
controlled by direct and indirect muscles
(elevators and depressors)
• Draw the structure of an insect’s hind
leg and the flight muscles
aogagah@yahoo.com
FINNED FISH
aogagah@yahoo.com
LOCOMOTION IN A FINNED FISH
• Locomotion in a fined fish is brought
about by side to side movement of the
tail. This is due to the relaxation and
the contraction of the antagonistic
muscles on the right and left sides of
the tail. These muscle groups are
called myotomes.
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Movement of the tail on one side pushes
water sideways and backwards. The
backward push creates a forward reaction
that pushes the fish forward. The sideways
push on the water creates a sideways
reaction in the opposite direction that tends
to push the fish sideways. This reaction is
cancelled when the tail moves to the other
side hence the tail movement propels the fish
forward on a straight course.
aogagah@yahoo.com
ADAPTATIONS OF THE FISH TO ITS MOVEMENT
• Has a streamlined body- this reduces
friction between the water and the fish
hence reducing resistance to the flow in
the water.
• Has scales that overlap backwards- this
reduces the friction enabling the fish to
move in water with little drag
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Has a lateral line- act as a sense organ detectaing
vibrations in the water and detecting changes in
the pressure. This enables the fish to respond
suitably hence helps in escaping predators and
strangers.
• Has an inflexible head- this helps in maintaining a
forward thrush
• Has a swim bladder- this is an air filled cavity which
helps in maintaining buoyancy. This enables the
fish to adjust its vertical position in relation to the
depth of water.
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Has muscle blocks called myotomes -these
contract and relax causing the undulating
movement (anguiliform movement).
• Has a flexible backbone and strong tail
muscle- this contract and relax causing the
tail to move sideways against water.
• Has mucus covering on the body surface-
this reduces the friction between the water
and the fish. It also reduces evaporation of
water and entry of microorganisms
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Has paired fins i.e. pelvic and pectoral
fins- these fins are used for:
a. Maintaining balance
b. Braking
c. Changing direction
d. Controls pitching- this is when the fish
plunges head first into the water
aogagah@yahoo.com
• Has unpaired fins i.e. anal/ ventral,
dorsal and caudal fins- caudal fin is used
for the forward propulsion and steering.
Dorsal and ventral fins prevent the fish
from rolling and yawing.
• Rolling- this is the turning of the body of
the fish about its own axis
• Yawing- this is the lateral deflection of
the body of the fish during swimming
aogagah@yahoo.com
Describe how a finned fish such as
tilapia moves in water
Movement of a finned fish in water is by
swimming. It involves forward movement
and control of body position in water.
Mucus, scales overlapping backwards,
streamlined body/shape reduces friction
to enhance forward movement.
aogagah@yahoo.com
Forward/ propulsion is caused by the tail.
The tail is long to create enough force for
propulsion. Propulsion is achieved when
the tail pushes sideways against the
water.
Sideways movement is brought about by
muscles arranged in segmental blocks
called myotomes on both sides of the
vertebral column
aogagah@yahoo.com
The muscles contract alternatively/
antagonistically causing the vertebral
column to swing sideways . When the
muscles on the right relax, those on the
left contract and the body bends to the
left. When the muscles on the left relax,
those on the right contract and the body
bends to the right
aogagah@yahoo.com
The fish uses its fins to control the position
of its body in water. During forward
movement, the paired fins; pectoral fins
and pelvic fins lie flat on the side of the
body to reduce friction/ resistance.
To change direction, the fish uses the
paired fins. The fish also uses the paired
fins to change its level in water/ control
pitching/ prevent pitching.
aogagah@yahoo.com
The fish spreads out the pectoral and the
pelvic fins at 90 degrees/ right angle to
the body to enable it to brake.
The fish can also use its swim bladder to
change its level in water. When the
bladder fills up with air, the fish becomes
lighter/ more buoyant making it to rise in
water.
aogagah@yahoo.com
When the air leaves the swim bladder, the
fish becomes heavier/ more dense
making it to sink deeper into the water
Water currents may cause the sideways
swaying of the body of the fish/ yawing.
The dorsal fin, ventral fin and the anal fin
prevent the rolling and yawing of the fish
in water
aogagah@yahoo.com
QUOTE OF THE DAY
• In education it isn't how much you have
committed to memory
or even how much you know.
It's being able to differentiate
between what you do know and what you
don't.
It's knowing where to go to find out what
you need to know
and it's knowing how to use the
information you get.

THE SKULL
• Also called the cranium
• It is made up of many small bones
joined together to form immovable
joints called sutures.
• It also comprises of the upper jaw
/maxilla and the lower jaw/ mandibles.
• The maxilla is fused to the cranium
while the lower jaw articulates with the
cranium forming a hinge joint which is
movable. aogagah@yahoo.com
• There are perforations on the cranium
such as the foramina and fissures to
allow nerves, blood vessels and the
lymph vessels to pass through to and
from the brain.
• At the posterior of the cranium are two
smooth projections called occipital
condyles which articulate with the first
bone of the vertebral column called atlas
to form a hinge joint. This allows for the
nodding of the head.

Support and movement in plants and animals

  • 1. SUPPORT AND MOVEMENT IN PLANTS AND ANIMALS aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 2. DEFINNITION OF TERMS • Support – this is the ability of an organism to bear its own mass/weight and maintain its body form • Movement- this is the process by which an organism displaces parts of its body or the whole of its body from one place to another. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 3. Types of movement • Locomotion: this is the process by which an organism displaces the whole of its body from one place to another. • Localized movement: this is the process by which an organism displaces parts of its body from one place. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 4. Levels of movement in plants • Cellular level e.g. swimming of the male gametes in bryophytes and pteridophytes and growth of the pollen tube to bring about fertilization • Organ level e.g. tropic and nastic movements aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 5. NECESSITY FOR MOVEMENT IN PLANTS • Swimming of the male gametes in bryophytes and pteridophytes and growth of the pollen tube to bring about fertilization • Nastic and tropic responses help plants to obtain resources from the environment such as water, light and nutrients • Movement enables plants to escape harmful stimuli such as high temperatures aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 6. NECESSITY FOR SUPPORT IN PLANTS • Enables plants withstand the forces in the environment • Enables plants to carry their mass and the mass of the animals that climb on them • Enables plants to withstand strong wind and storms • Helps in exposing leaves for photosynthesis • Enables for efficient gaseous exchange aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 8. TRANSVERSE SECTION OF A MONOCOT STEM • Draw the internal structure of a monocot stem aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 9. SUPPORT TISSUES IN PLANTS • Parenchyma • Collenchyma • Sclerenchyma • Xylem vessels and xylem tracheids aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 10. PARENCHYMA • The parenchymatous tissue is a storage tissue which helps in the storage of water and food. • It is a specialized tissue made of long and cylindrical cells • Helps in providing support by gaining water and becoming turgid aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 11. COLLENCHYMA • Found beneath the epidermis • Similar in shape to the parenchyma cells • Provides support to the plant due to the presence of cellulose aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 12. SCLERENCHYMA • Found in close association with the vascular bundles • Provide support to the plant due to the deposition of lignin which is tough and rigid aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 13. XYLEM VESSELS AND XYLEM TRACHEIDS • Xylem tissue helps in the transportation of the absorbed water up the plant. It is therefore a transport tissue • It also helps in providing support to the plant due to presence of lignin i.e. they have thick lignified walls. • The pattern of lignification varies giving rise to various types of lignificationaogagah@yahoo.com
  • 14. WILTING • This is the process by which a plant loses more water than the absorbed water causing the plant cells to become flaccid. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 15. TYPES OF XYLEM VESSELS • PITTED • ANNULAR • SCALARIFORM • RETICULATE • SPIRAL aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 16. SUPPORT AND MOVEMENT IN ANIMALS aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 17. • Animals need support due to the fluid nature of their protoplasm. Multicellular animals require a rigid framework to support their bodies off the ground and to maintain their shapes. This is performed by the skeleton aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 20. IMPORTANCE OF SUPPORT AND MOVEMENT IN AIMALS aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 21. MOVEMENT • Enables the organisms to obtain food, shelter and mates • Enables animals to escape predators • Enables animals to escape harsh/ hostile environmental conditions aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 22. SUPPORT • Helps in the maintainance of the body shape • Helps in supporting the body off the ground • Forms a rigid framework for the body against forces such as compression and tension aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 23. FUNCTIONS OS THE SKELETON • Support- the skeleton forms a rigid framework for the body against forces such as compression and tension. This helps the body to maintain its body shape and supporting the body off the ground • Protection- offers protection to the delicate internal organs against physical injury. The skull protects the brain; the vertebral column protects the spinal cord while the ribcage protects the lungs and the heart. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 24. Surport cont. • Attachment of the skeletal muscles- provides points for the attachment of the skeletal muscles which contract and relax bringing about movement. • Production of white blood cells and red blood cells- the white and the red bone marrow produce the white and the red blood cells respectively. • Act as levers by which the body moves- long bones such as the femur and humerus act as levers by which the body moves. • Storage of calcium and phosphorous • Provides shock absorbing mechanismaogagah@yahoo.com
  • 25. TYPES OF SKELETONS • Exoskeleton • Hydroskeleton/ hydrostatic skeleton • Endoskeleton aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 26. HYDROSKELETON • This is a type of skeleton consisting of a fluid under pressure. The fluid is surrounded by circular and longitudinal muscles. This type of skeleton is found in soft bodied organisms e.g. earthworms. This enables them to move and burrow into the soil aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 27. EXOSKELETON • This is a type of skeleton found on the outside of the organism and is made of chitin secreted by the epidermis. It is sclerotized or hardened with proteins. It is found in the phylum arthropoda mainly in the class insecta. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 28. Functions of the exoskeleton • It is impervious/ impermeable to water and therefore protects the animal from dehydration or desiccation. • Provides protection against microbial infection • Provides protection against mechanical injury • Provides points for muscle attachment hence movement. • Supports the body off the ground i.e. supports tissues and organs aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 29. NB • The exoskeleton prevents increase in the size of the organism and therefore it must be shed periodically a process called moulting/ ecdysis. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 30. ENDOSKELETON • This is a type of skeleton which is internal to the muscles. It is made up of bones and cartilage. It is found in the vertebrates. • It is made up of living tissue aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 31. Bone Cartilage It is rigid It is flexible Has calcium and phosphorous deposits which makes it very hard Lack calcium and phosphorous deposits hence not very hard Made up of bone cells called osteoblasts Made up of chondroblast cells aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 32. NB phosphorous confers toughness while calcium confers hardness aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 33. MOVEMENT IN AN INSECT • Some insects walk, others fly and others jump. Walking is achieved by the coordinated activity of the legs in an insect. An insect’s legs consist of hollow tubes whose walls are made up of exoskeleton. • The first part of the leg called the coxa is joined to the body by a ball and socket joint. All the other parts are hinge joints. Movement is brought about by the extensor and flexor muscles which contract and relax antagonistically. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 34. • The flying insects use wings. Flying is controlled by direct and indirect muscles (elevators and depressors) • Draw the structure of an insect’s hind leg and the flight muscles aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 36. LOCOMOTION IN A FINNED FISH • Locomotion in a fined fish is brought about by side to side movement of the tail. This is due to the relaxation and the contraction of the antagonistic muscles on the right and left sides of the tail. These muscle groups are called myotomes. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 37. • Movement of the tail on one side pushes water sideways and backwards. The backward push creates a forward reaction that pushes the fish forward. The sideways push on the water creates a sideways reaction in the opposite direction that tends to push the fish sideways. This reaction is cancelled when the tail moves to the other side hence the tail movement propels the fish forward on a straight course. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 38. ADAPTATIONS OF THE FISH TO ITS MOVEMENT • Has a streamlined body- this reduces friction between the water and the fish hence reducing resistance to the flow in the water. • Has scales that overlap backwards- this reduces the friction enabling the fish to move in water with little drag aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 39. • Has a lateral line- act as a sense organ detectaing vibrations in the water and detecting changes in the pressure. This enables the fish to respond suitably hence helps in escaping predators and strangers. • Has an inflexible head- this helps in maintaining a forward thrush • Has a swim bladder- this is an air filled cavity which helps in maintaining buoyancy. This enables the fish to adjust its vertical position in relation to the depth of water. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 40. • Has muscle blocks called myotomes -these contract and relax causing the undulating movement (anguiliform movement). • Has a flexible backbone and strong tail muscle- this contract and relax causing the tail to move sideways against water. • Has mucus covering on the body surface- this reduces the friction between the water and the fish. It also reduces evaporation of water and entry of microorganisms aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 41. • Has paired fins i.e. pelvic and pectoral fins- these fins are used for: a. Maintaining balance b. Braking c. Changing direction d. Controls pitching- this is when the fish plunges head first into the water aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 42. • Has unpaired fins i.e. anal/ ventral, dorsal and caudal fins- caudal fin is used for the forward propulsion and steering. Dorsal and ventral fins prevent the fish from rolling and yawing. • Rolling- this is the turning of the body of the fish about its own axis • Yawing- this is the lateral deflection of the body of the fish during swimming aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 43. Describe how a finned fish such as tilapia moves in water Movement of a finned fish in water is by swimming. It involves forward movement and control of body position in water. Mucus, scales overlapping backwards, streamlined body/shape reduces friction to enhance forward movement. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 44. Forward/ propulsion is caused by the tail. The tail is long to create enough force for propulsion. Propulsion is achieved when the tail pushes sideways against the water. Sideways movement is brought about by muscles arranged in segmental blocks called myotomes on both sides of the vertebral column aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 45. The muscles contract alternatively/ antagonistically causing the vertebral column to swing sideways . When the muscles on the right relax, those on the left contract and the body bends to the left. When the muscles on the left relax, those on the right contract and the body bends to the right aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 46. The fish uses its fins to control the position of its body in water. During forward movement, the paired fins; pectoral fins and pelvic fins lie flat on the side of the body to reduce friction/ resistance. To change direction, the fish uses the paired fins. The fish also uses the paired fins to change its level in water/ control pitching/ prevent pitching. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 47. The fish spreads out the pectoral and the pelvic fins at 90 degrees/ right angle to the body to enable it to brake. The fish can also use its swim bladder to change its level in water. When the bladder fills up with air, the fish becomes lighter/ more buoyant making it to rise in water. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 48. When the air leaves the swim bladder, the fish becomes heavier/ more dense making it to sink deeper into the water Water currents may cause the sideways swaying of the body of the fish/ yawing. The dorsal fin, ventral fin and the anal fin prevent the rolling and yawing of the fish in water aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 49. QUOTE OF THE DAY • In education it isn't how much you have committed to memory or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't. It's knowing where to go to find out what you need to know and it's knowing how to use the information you get. William Featheraogagah@yahoo.com
  • 51. •This is brought about by muscles and bones. The mammalian skeleton comprises of: •Axial skeleton •Appendicular skeleton aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 52. THE AXIAL SKELETON Consists of: • The skull • The sternum • RibS • Vertebral column aogagah@yahoo.com

  • 54. THE SKULL • Also called the cranium • It is made up of many small bones joined together to form immovable joints called sutures. • It also comprises of the upper jaw /maxilla and the lower jaw/ mandibles. • The maxilla is fused to the cranium while the lower jaw articulates with the cranium forming a hinge joint which is movable. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 55. • There are perforations on the cranium such as the foramina and fissures to allow nerves, blood vessels and the lymph vessels to pass through to and from the brain. • At the posterior of the cranium are two smooth projections called occipital condyles which articulate with the first bone of the vertebral column called atlas to form a hinge joint. This allows for the nodding of the head. aogagah@yahoo.com
  • 57. FUNCTIONS OF THE SKULL • Encloses and protects the brain •protects the olfactory organs, eyes and the inner and middle ear aogagah@yahoo.com
