Physiological flexibility and acclimation to food shortage in a heterothermic primate.
As ecosystems undergo changes worldwide, physiological flexibility is likely to be an important adaptive response to increased climate instability. Extreme weather fluctuations impose energetical constraints such as unpredictable food shortage. We tested how grey mouse lemurs (Microcebus murinus) could adjust their daily heterothermy and locomotor activity to these 'energetic accidents' with a ...
متن کاملReproductive Resilience to Food Shortage in a Small Heterothermic Primate
The massive energetic costs entailed by reproduction in most mammalian females may increase the vulnerability of reproductive success to food shortage. Unexpected events of unfavorable climatic conditions are expected to rise in frequency and intensity as climate changes. The extent to which physiological flexibility allows organisms to maintain reproductive output constant despite energetic bo...
متن کاملFood shortage can drive body temperature regulation in wild heterothermic vertebrates
Food availability is expected to trigger hibernation and torpor (ie heterothermy) use. Yet, laboratory experiments under controlled conditions dominate, and this hypothesis remains largely untested under natural conditions. Further experimental manipulations of food availability must therefore be conducted in the wild, accounting for other covarying environmental stressors.
متن کاملa frame semantic approach to the study of translating cultural scripts in salingers franny and zooey
the frame semantic theory is a nascent approach in the area of translation studies which goes beyond the linguistic barriers and helps us to incorporate cognitive and cultural factors to the study of translation. based on rojos analytical model (2002b), which centered in the frames or knowledge structures activated in the text, the present research explores the various translation problems that...
15 صفحه اولidentifying the strategies persian efl learners use in reading an expository text in english and examining its relation to reading-proficiency and motivation: a think-aloud study
هدف اصلی از این مطالعه بررسی نوع و میزان استراتژی هایی بود که دانشجویان فارسی زبان رشته ی زبان انگلیسی در حین خواندن یک متن انگلیسی به کار گرفتند. این مطالعه همچنین به بررسی تفاوت های استراتژی های مورد استفاده بین دارندگان سطح بالا و پایین درک مطلب پرداخت. نوع همبستگی بین استراتژی به کار گرفته و درک مطلب از یک سو و استراتژی به کار گرفته و انگیزه از سوی دیگر نیز در این تحقیق مورد آزمایش قرار گرف...
