Describing and understanding behavioral responses to multiple stressors and multiple stimuli
Understanding the effects of environmental change on natural ecosystems is a major challenge, particularly when multiple stressors interact to produce unexpected "ecological surprises" in the form of complex, nonadditive effects that can amplify or reduce their individual effects. Animals often respond behaviorally to environmental change, and multiple stressors can have both population-level a...
متن کاملCutaneous responses to environmental stressors
Living organisms are continuously exposed to environmental pollutants. Because of its critical location, the skin is a major interface between the body and the environment and provides a biological barrier against an array of chemical and physical environmental pollutants. The skin can be defined as our first defense against the environment because of its constant exposure to oxidants, includin...
متن کاملP-53: Maternal Diet, Vaginal pH and Time of Ovulation Effects on Offspring`s Sex Ratio
Background Although there are different ways to achieve the desired sex of the fetus, most of those are not completely effective. This paper reports a study on human to check the theories which hypothesize that high potassium maternal diet, douching with alkaline substance to change vaginal PH and intercourse around ovulation affects the sex ratio of the progeny MaterialsAndMethods A quasi-expe...
متن کاملMaternal pinealectomy increases depressive-like responses in Siberian hamster offspring.
This study investigated the effect of maternal pinealectomy and postnatal pinealectomy on affective responses. Siberian hamsters were born to either pinealectomized or sham-operated dams and then underwent pinealectomy or a sham operation. Maternal pinealectomy increased depressive-like responses of offspring in the forced swim test. Maternal pinealectomy increased rearing behaviour and postnat...
متن کاملCorrection: Prenatal Exposure to Maternal Bereavement and Childbirths in the Offspring: A Population-Based Cohort Study
INTRODUCTION The decline in birth rates is a concern in public health. Fertility is partly determined before birth by the intrauterine environment and prenatal exposure to maternal stress could, through hormonal disturbance, play a role. There has been such evidence from animal studies but not from humans. We aimed to examine the association between prenatal stress due to maternal bereavement f...
