## Abstract The effects of hibernation and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 weeks of coldβexposure (5 Β± 1Β° C) were studied on the testes of 100 adult, male hamsters (__Mesocrietus auratus__, Waterhouse), having initial body weights of 80 to 100 gm. Half of these animals were maintained on an eightβhour p

## Abstract Pinealectomies and radical sham pinealectomies were performed on goldenβmantled and Richardson's ground squirrels approximately 1 month prior to the date of normal immergence for each species. Pinealectomy did not disrupt the hibernating rhythm of either species. These results suggest (
## Rates of O 2 consumption ( . VO 2 ) were determined for adult northern leopard frogs (Rana pipiens) submerged at 3 1C at water PO 2 s (P w O 2 ) ranging from 0-160 mmHg. The critical O 2 tension (P c ) was 36.4 mmHg. Hematocrit and blood levels of PO 2 , glucose, lactate, pH, and osmolality we
One hundred and two isolated frog hearts were divided into ten groups and placed individually in a waveguide filled with Ringer's solution and exposed to 2,450-MHz CW radiation at 2 and 8.55 W/kg. Heart rate was recorded using one of the following methods: 3-M KCI glass electrode, ultrasound probe,
