โœฆ Synopsis


The harbor seal (Phoca vitulina, L.) must tolerate repeated periods of asphyxia as a consequence of the apnea of diving. Irving, Scholander and Grinnell ( '42) have shown that the hemodynamic responses to diving involve the development of bradycardia and diminution of blood flow through the muscles of the back. The renal circulation participates actively in this vasoconstrictive response to asphyxia (Bradle? and Bing, '42). Sodium, potassium and water output decrease sharply in association with a fall in renal blood flow and glomerular filtration (Bradley, Riudge and Blake, '54). The mechanism of this response remains obscure. Anoxemia hecomes evident shortly after apnea is induced, and may possi1)ly play an important role in altering renal tubular function and urine for-'Aided by the Edward N.

The adaptive response of the seal to diving appears composed of two changes, a reflex bradycardia with resultant decrease in cardiac output reported by Scholander ('40), and an arterial constrictor response with cessation of blood flow through muscle beds described by Irving, Scholander, and Grinnel
