Hummingbird
- first is photosynthesis. It is
when the sun's rays pass
through the plant
- The nectar is produced by
different glands at the base
of the stamens and petals,
called nectaries, often
deposited in bags or rams
base of the corolla.
- His long tongue allows
them to suck nectar from
flowers through the
wound structure on the
outside of the tongue
- Then Food initially passes to
an elastic sac in the neck called
a crop, which serves the same
storage and supply functions
as a stomach. Small amounts
of food empty from the crop
and pass to the Intestine,
where sugar is assimilated into
the blood.
- Hummingbirds are very fast animals, can
flap their wings up to 70 times per second
remaining in the same place while
extracting nectar from the flower.
- energy passes from the
nectar to cellular respiration
in the hummingbird’s cells to
generate energy for
movement
