Unlike most anuran larvae, tadpoles ofBufo woodhousei (toads? lack lungs. To investigate the consequences of lunglessness and its interaction with the body size of larvae, resting and active tadpoles were exposed to hypoxia. In resting larvae, rates of 0, consumption (Vo,) were proportional to aquat
The addition of fructose to natural meals elicits lower serum glucose and immunoreactive insulin responses when compared with that of sucrose and starch meals. Differences in rates of splanchnic glucose appearance and peripheral glucose disposal may be partly responsible. To evaluate the role of bot
