Other bags
biology
- Amniotic sac: it is the covering of two membranes that covers the embryoand that is formed between the eighth and ninth day of fertilization . The inner membrane called amnion contains the amniotic fluid and the fetus
- Air sacs: they are organs that birdspossess , which fill and empty with air with each inspiration and expiration. In them there is no gas exchange; This job, which involves retaining oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide , is done by the lungs .
- Scrotal sac: is a set of envelopes that cover and house the testiclesand excretory pathways outside the abdomen in male mammals. This area of the skin is shaped like a sac or bag, is covered with pubic hair and has particular characteristics that differentiate it from the one that covers the rest of the body.
- Fecal sac: it is a resistant and whitish mucous bag that encloses inside the droppings of certain nest chickens. Adult birds take the fecal bags and either leave them several meters from the nest or eat them, which maintains the hygiene of the nest avoiding infections in the clutch and also prevents the smell of feces in the vicinity to reveal the nest presence to predators. This behavior occurs mainly between passerines and minnows.
- Lacrimal sac: Connects the lacrimal ducts, which drain tears from the surface of the eye, with the nasolacrimal duct that leads this fluid to the nasal cavity.
- The viscous sac: it is a product secreted by the clitellum of the annelids, where the eggs are placed.
- The yolk sac: it is a membranous annex attached to the embryo that provides it with nutrients and oxygen, it occurs in fish, sharks, reptiles, birds and primitive mammals, while eliminating metabolic debris. In the human embryo it functions as the circulatory system in the developmental stages, before the internal circulation begins.
- The vocal sac: is the flexible membrane of the skin that most male anurae possess. The purpose of the vocal sac is usually to act as an amplifier of your mating call. The presence or development of the vocal part of the sac is one way of determining the sex of a frog in many species.
