The Influence of Oxygen Tension upon Metabolic Rate in Invertebrates
It is shown that in several of the higher invertebrate animals, oxygen consumption is directly proportional to the oxygen tension in the sea water, over a wide range.
متن کاملZoology: Invertebrates that Parasitize Invertebrates
The genome of an orthonectid, a group of highly modified parasitic invertebrates, is drastically reduced and compact, yet it shows the bilaterian gene toolkit. Phylogenetic analyses place the enigmatic orthonectids within Spiralia, although their exact placement remains uncertain.
متن کاملNeural detection of gases--carbon dioxide, oxygen--in vertebrates and invertebrates.
Carbon dioxide (CO(2)) and oxygen (O(2)) are important cues that can signal the presence of food, predators, and environmental stress. Here we will review recent studies on the mechanisms of how the olfactory system detects these two molecules. In both vertebrates and invertebrates, the two molecules are detected by subsets of specialized olfactory neurons. In addition, the signal transduction ...
متن کاملPain and suffering in invertebrates?
All animals face hazards that cause tissue damage and most have nociceptive reflex responses that protect them from such damage. However, some taxa have also evolved the capacity for pain experience, presumably to enhance long-term protection through behavior modification based on memory of the unpleasant nature of pain. In this article I review various criteria that might distinguish nocicepti...
متن کاملMating and immunity in invertebrates.
Mating and immunity are intimately linked to fitness. In both vertebrates and invertebrates, recent investigations into mate choice for immunity, tradeoffs between reproduction and immunity, and the relationships between post-mating processes and immune function have revealed that mating and immunity are also intimately linked to each other. Here, we focus on invertebrates and critically examin...
