Abstract
Analysis of oxygen consumption and lactic acid formation during five minutes of maximal activity by the rodents Microtus montanus (Cricetidae) and Dipodomys merriami (Heteromyidae) indicates that: (1) anaerobiosis provides approximately 10% of total energy utilized during the 5βminute activity period; (2) anaerobiosis may account for as much as oneβthird of total energy utilized during the first 30 seconds of activity. In addition, these data indicate at least one species of lizard may be capable of a higher total rate of metabolism during βburstβ activity than are the rodents investigated here.
