The purpose of the study was to determine whether an episode of anoxia in the neonatal period affects the hypoxic ventilatory response in developing rats. Three to 4 day old rats (EXP rats) (day 0 = day of birth) were exposed to 100% N 2 for about 20 min. In anoxia, animals changed their respiratory

## Abstract When mudskippers were fully submerged in 100% seawater (SW), the mortality of __Boleophthalmus boddaerti__ was higher than that of __Periophthalmus chrysospilos__. However, this trend was reversed when mudskippers were submerged in dechlorinated tap water or in 10% SW. The plasma osmola
Direct calorimetry was employed to measure the energy metabolism of infaunal bivalves, Abra tenuis, collected from a tidal lagoon in the Fleet, southern England, in June 1989, at various oxygen partial pressures. A significant anaerobic component (i.e., 20% of total metabolic rate) was detected unde
The rate of metabolism of laboratory reared Chironomus riparius was monitored by direct calorimetry over the entire life cycle from egg to adult stage. The metabolic response of the fourth instar larva to decreasing oxygen concentrations and anoxia was also measured. Normoxic measurements were carri
