Patterns of blood flow during the postprandial response in ball pythons, Python regius.
We present evidence supporting the hypothesis that postprandial upregulation of the size of the small intestine and the liver is caused by an increased blood flow volume to the organs. The postprandial response of ball pythons was characterized by measurements of oxygen consumption, organ size changes and histological evaluation of the mucosal epithelium and liver parenchyme. Synchronized with ...
متن کاملTongue worm (Pentastomida) infection in ball pythons (Python regius) – a case report
Tongue worms (Pentastomida) are endoparasites causing pentastomiasis, an invasive disease representing a threat to exotic animals and humans. Animals acquire infection via the alimentary tract. In reptiles, the parasite is present in the lungs, resulting in symptoms from the respiratory system. Pentastomiasis may be asymptomatic, but nonspecific symptoms may occur at high parasite concentration...
متن کاملWhy do female ball pythons (Python regius) coil so tightly around their eggs?
Question: What benefits does brooding confer to offspring viability that outweigh its costs to the nest-attending female? Organisms: Thirty captive Python regius females and their clutches. Site: Vicinity of Lomé, Togo. Background: It has previously been shown that brooding enhances ball python hatching success by reducing desiccation of eggs. Methods: We captured wild, gravid females just befo...
متن کاملHumoral regulation of heart rate during digestion in pythons (Python molurus and Python regius).
Pythons exhibit a doubling of heart rate when metabolism increases several times during digestion. Pythons, therefore, represent a promising model organism to study autonomic cardiovascular regulation during the postprandial state, and previous studies show that the postprandial tachycardia is governed by a release of vagal tone as well as a pronounced stimulation from nonadrenergic, noncholine...
متن کاملFour ball best ball 1.
In this paper a four-ball-best-ball (4BBB) model for pairs of golf players is set up. The 4BBB match-play scoring system is seen to satisfy a basic requirement of fairness. It is shown that it is not strictly possible to rate individual players as 4BBB players. However, a (reasonably broad) class of individual players is identified such that it is possible to rate them individually as 4BBB play...
