Arctic Wolf's Skeletal System
SKELETAL SYSTEM
The Arctic wolf’s body is built for long-distance travel and withstand different types of weather than other wolves. The Arctic wolf’s skeleton system is made for them to run, jump, and catch their prey.
The part of the wolf’s skeletal starts with the part of the body that has bones of the limbs, skull, and a deep chest.
1. The limbs of the wolf include the legs and toes. The wolf has long legs, large paws, and short toes. The wolf has five toes on the forefeet and four toes on the hind feet.
2. The skull protects the brain.
3. The dentary bone the lower jaw makes it easy for the wolf to chew through tough prey. The jaw is hard, strong, and the densest in the wolf.

Cerebrum region is where the senses They use this region to hear to hear, see and smell.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
The circulatory system is where the blood circulates. There are blood vessels and arteries. The blood vessels take blood to the heart and the arteries take blood away from the heart. The heart is in the center of the thorax or chest. The heart beats at an average of 120 beats every minute.
The heart main job is to pump all the blood in the body to the places that it needs to go,
The wolf has a four chamber heart.
1. The left atrium gets blood from the lungs then passes it into the left ventricle. The heart pumps oxygenated blood out through the large aorta and carries blood to the rest of the body.
2. The blood drains back to the heart then goes into the right atrium and the right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
The respiratory systems consist of the lungs, a diaphragm, trachea, and a nose. The Arctic wolf gets oxygen by breathing through the nose and then having the oxygen transferred by the trachea to the lungs. In a wolf’s body, all the cells need oxygen and sugar glucose for respiration. The oxygen required is delivered by the …show more content…
Stomach has acids and other chemicals from the pancreas and liver make a mixture called pulp.
a. The stomach contains many gland cells discharging most of the digestive juices.
b. They are stomach acid and enzymes that attack the chemical structure of the food
c. The epithelial cells are the linen of the intestine.
d. The villi are the surface area of the cells exposed to food passing along the gut. It has hundreds of tiny hairs
Parts of the Digestive System of a Wolf
1. The liver is where food enters further down the small intestine It helps neutralize and also breaks down fatty molecules in the stomach The yellowish liquid is called bile. The bile is in the liver and stored in the gallbladder
2. Small Intestines is where things break down proteins and fats. The pulp is blended digestive juices from the pancreas and liver.
3. Large Intestine is where food slows down and gets its last chunks of nutrients.
4. Colon reabsorbs the fluids and processes the waste product and it prepares for its elimination.
5. The food that is not digested is considered waste. The waste passes into the rectum and out through the anus.
EXCRETORY SYSTEM
In the excretory systems, there is a set of kidneys, a bladder, a ureter, and a urethra. They help to get rid of the waste that the cells in the body do not
