1
Animal bodies vary by design: organs, shells, limbs, and locomotion.
2
Aristotle refutes fire-eye theories, explaining vision through water and light.
3
Aristotle defines colour as translucent boundary; explains colour-mixing theories.
4
Aristotle explains savour’s origin: water altered by dry matter and heat.

“Odour parallels savour: dry matter in moisture shapes scent perception.
6
Infinitely divisible sensibles, perception limits, and how sensory motion travels.
7
Why simultaneous perception fails: one soul, one act, divisible sensibles.

1
Memory stores past images; likeness-impressions let the soul recall time.
2
Recollection traces ordered inner movements to revive past experiences consciously.

1
Sleep and waking alternate in animals as sense-power wanes and returns.
2
Sleep stems from the common sensory core; waking restores perception.
3
Sleep begins in nutritive vapors rising, cooling, and silencing perception.

Dreams

.
1
Dreams arise from sense-perception’s lingering images active during sleep.
2
Dreams arise when lingering sensory motions deceive perception during sleep.
3
Dormant sensory residues surge during sleep, generating vivid mistaken dream-images.

1
Dream-divination mixes bodily signs, illusions, and coincidences without certainty.
2
Lingering sensory motions persist during sleep, generating vivid deceptive dream-images.
3
Dormant sensory echoes intensify during sleep, forming illusions mistaken as dreams.

Animal parts arise from elements; form guides composition; function shapes structure.
2
Homogeneous parts vary; fluids, solids, heat, cold differ by purpose and cause.
3
Solid, fluid, heat, blood explain nutrition and natural processes in animals.
4
Blood’s fibre, thickness, and purity shape temperament, intelligence, and coagulation.

1
Teeth and mouths vary for cutting, grinding, weapons, speech, and respiration.
2
Horns serve defense; appear in large vivipara; shaped by need and material.
3
Necks house windpipe and esophagus; epiglottis protects airway during swallowing.
4
Viscera belong to blooded animals; heart central source of blood, sensation.
5
Blood vessels arise from one heart; two main trunks supply whole body.
6
Lungs cool hot land animals; structure varies by species and respiration needs.
7
Viscera mirror body’s bilateral design; liver, heart essential, spleen optional.
8
Bladders occur in blood-lung animals; others excrete little or via skin.
9
Kidneys absent in feathered or scaled animals; present in blood-lung species.
10
Midriff separates upper vital organs from stomach, guarding sensory centre.
11
Membranes lightly protect viscera; heart and brain receive strongest coverings.
12
Viscera differ across species; liver and spleen shapes vary widely.
13
Viscera lie inside for vessels’ sake; flesh surrounds but depends.
14
Large herbivores lacking upper front teeth develop multiple stomach chambers.
15
Blood vessels arise from one heart; two main trunks supply whole body.
16
Lungs cool hot land animals; structure varies by species and respiration needs.
