Tuna comparative physiology.
Thunniform swimming, the capacity to conserve metabolic heat in red muscle and other body regions (regional endothermy), an elevated metabolic rate and other physiological rate functions, and a frequency-modulated cardiac output distinguish tunas from most other fishes. These specializations support continuous, relatively fast swimming by tunas and minimize thermal barriers to habitat exploitat...
متن کاملComparative Physiology
Comparative physiology studies cellular, organ and organismic phenomena. It benefits from the diversity found in the animal kingdom. This diversity results from the enormous number of animal species and also from the size variation found among them. While describing the basic physiological systems in various animal groups it provides important basic information. The study of physiological varia...

متن کاملComparative Physiology
The chief functions of the body, as illustrated in the entire gamut of animal life, are arranged under four headings: (i) response, of the endocrine and nervous systems; (4) and, finally, reproduction fertilization , inheritance and development. On reading the book, one is struck by the fact that much of the present knowledge of physiology has been gained through studies on the higher vertebrat...

The optimal utilization of nutrients requires an integrated response of the gastrointestinal tract to ingested food. Broad mechanisms are similar in all mammals and involve sensing food components through olfaction, taste and specialized receptors within the stomach and intestines. The sensing of food components leads to release of gut hormones and activation of nerves, which in turn modify dig...
