Salamanders are acknowledged to be the closest postural model of early tetrapods and are capable of walking both in a terrestrial environment and while submerged under water. Nonetheless, locomotion in this group is poorly understood, as is...
Does the ability to metabolically downregulate alter the hypoxia tolerance of fishes? A comparative study using cunner (T. adspersus) and Greenland cod (G. ogac) [0.03%]

Using a conditioning paradigm, the olfactory sensitivity of four CD-1 mice for six alkylpyrazines was investigated. With all six stimuli, the animals discriminated concentrations
Seasonal flexibility of organ mass and intestinal function for the Andean lizard Liolaemus nigroviridis [0.03%]
安第斯蜥蜴Liolaemus nigroviridis器官质量和肠道功能的季节性变化

One of the most fundamental questions in organismal ecology is how animals work in a continuously changing environment. In order to contribute to the current understanding of this question, this study evaluated seasonal changes in digestive...
Daily and seasonal changes in the stickiness of viscous capture threads in Argiope aurantia and Argiope trifasciata orb-webs [0.03%]
球腹蛛有粘性的捕食丝的粘性变化受季节和日常活动影响
Brent D Opell,Genine K Lipkey,Mary L Hendricks et al.
Brent D Opell et al.
The spirally arrayed viscous capture threads of spider orb-webs are formed of small, regularly spaced adhesive droplets and are responsible for retaining insects that strike the web, giving a spider more time to subdue these prey. These sti...
