New perspectives in archosaur biology

Creator:

Harwell, Amy E.

Abstract:

The respiratory and metabolic biology of dinosaurs is poorly, if at all, reflected in the fossil record. By comparing anatomical features of modern taxa that are functionally linked to specific biology with the remains of theropod dinosaurs (Archosauria: Theropoda) and early birds, we may reasonably infer the physiology of long...

New insights into the biology of theropod dinosaurs

Creator:

Quick, Devon E.

Abstract:

There is little, if any, direct fossil evidence of the cardiovascular, respiratory, reproductive or digestive biology of dinosaurs. However, a variety of data can be used to draw reasonable inferences about the physiology of the carnivorous theropod dinosaurs (Archosauria: Theropoda). Extant archosaurs, birds and crocodilians, possess regionally differentiated, vascularized and...

The role of the vertebral column during jumping in quadrupedal mammals

Creator:

Harty, Tyson H.

Abstract:

Little, if any, quantifications have been made on the contribution of the vertebral column during jumping in quadrupedal mammals. Previous studies of jumpers have focused on the morphological and physiological specializations of the hindlimbs. In this study, such specialization was measured during the supramaximal jumps of the Pacific jumping mouse...

Resource allocation in four syntopic species of marine diving birds

Creator:

Scott, James Michael, 1941-

Abstract:

During 1969-1971 I studied patterns of resource allocation and behavioral interaction among Brandt's Cormorants, Pelagic Cormorants, Common Murres and Pigeon Guillemots in the area of a breeding colony on Yaquina Head on the central Oregon coast. Extensive studies of the breeding colony were combined with detailed observations of the distribution,...

Polygyny in the bobolink : habitat quality and the adaptive complex

Creator:

Martin, Stephen George, 1941-

Abstract:

The adaptiveness of polygyny in passerines poses a particularly intriguing problem. The altricial young of this group require extended parental care, but young of polygynous pairings generally lack the undivided attention of the male which young of monogamous pairings receive. Polygynous offspring may thus be undernourished and experience greater mortality....

Reproduction in chinchilla : superovulation

Creator:

Dorsch, John Andrew

Abstract:

The object of this study was to investigate the possibilities of inducing superovulation in the chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) by establishing the optimum dosage of pregnant mares' serum (PMS) to produce a maximum ovulatory response, and to compare chinchilla with other animals in this respect. Non-pregnant female chinchillas were given a...

The role of perinatal androgens in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of the gray-tailed vole, Microtus canicaudus

Creator:

Spielvogel, Sandra Petersen

Abstract:

These studies examined the role of perinatal androgen in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of gray-tailed voles, Microtus canicaudus. When mature, females exhibited alternating vaginal smear patterns or persistent vaginal cornification; estrogen and progesterone concentrations were not correlated with vaginal smear patterns. Corpora lutea were not observed in...

Respiratory adaptations of two macrurousanomuran mud shrimps, Callianassa Califormiensis and Upogebia pugettensis (Decapoda, Thalassinidea)

Creator:

Thompson, Rogene Kasparek

Abstract:

Callianassa californiensis Dana and Upogebia pugettensis (Dana) inhabit estuarine mudflats and are subjected to the hypoxic conditions that prevail during tidal exposure. Metabolic responses for both these species, as indicated by critical oxygen tension, metabolic rate, and tolerance to anoxia were determined. An oxygen macro-electrode and a physiological gas analyzer...
