Question
Chapter 28.1, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To identify: The hormones responsible for initiating puberty in females and males.
Concept introduction: Reproductive system (or genital system) is involved in sexual reproduction. The male and female reproductive systems function to propagate the species.
The period in which the adolescents reach sexual maturity and are capable for reproduction is called puberty.

6. This diagram shows rates of oxygen depletion and carbon dioxide accumulation in the blood in
relation to the levels needed to maintain consciousness and trigger the urgent need to breathe in
diving humans.
• How might the location and slope of the O2 line differ for diving marine mammals such as
whales and dolphins?
•
How might the location and slope of the CO2 line differ for diving marine mammals such as
whales and dolphins?
•
•
Draw in predicted lines for O2 and CO2, based on your reasoning above.
How might the location of the Urgent Need to Breathe line and the O2 Blackout Zone line
differ for diving marine mammals?
What physiological mechanisms account for each of these differences, resulting in the ability
of marine mammals to stay submerged for long periods of time?
