How much blood the heart pumps for every square meter of surface area (cardiac index) varies with the age of the individual. For children ages 10Â­13, the average cardiac index is 2.75 liters/m 2 /minute at a resting state. Multiply your body surface area by the cardiac index (2.75 l/m 2 /minute) to determine the liters of blood pumped by your heart in one minute (cardiac output). 2 /minute= ____liters per minute. How does your volume per minute compare to a 2 liter beverage bottle? .
Locomotion in Annelida Before we discuss the details of locomotion in annelids, we have to recapitulate the major subdivisions of the phylum Annelida.Phylum Annelida contains Polychaeta, Oligochaeta and Hirudinea.ocomotor structures. So, Locomotion is the result of co-ordinate effort of all these. Locomotion in Annelida. Before we discuss the details of locomotion in annelids, we have to recapitulate the major subdivisions of the phylum Annelida.
Lesson Summary. Annelida is the phylum that contains the segmented worms. These worms all have segmented bodies that are bilateral and contain the same structures in each segment, with exceptions of the head and anus of the animal. Since these animals are fairly simple, there are few highly specialized digestive structures.
