چکیده
Fast-start escape responses are critical behaviours used by fishes during predator-prey encounters and some interactions with heteroand conspecifics. In experimental studies, escape responses are often measured once per individual and considered representative of maximum performance. However, few studies have compared variability and repeatability in escape performances within and among individuals. Using the tropical damselfish Amblyglyphidodon curacao, we quantified interand intra-individual variation in behavioural and kinematic components of escape performance during repeated presentations of a stimulus at 15 min intervals. Individual maximum escape performance was repeatable through time, but there was considerable variation in the magnitude of responses both among and within fish. We found no evidence of habituation or fatigue due to repeated stimulations, suggesting that fish can be stimulated multiple times to ensure that an accurate estimate of maximum escape performance is obtained.

The most abundant connective proteins are members of the collagen family, with more than 20 different collagen types identified to date. Collagen makes up 70—80% of the dry weight of the skin, and contributes to the stability and structural integrity of tissues. A number of additional functional roles are carried out by add...

متن کاملOn the least signless Laplacian eigenvalue of a non-bipartite connected graph with fixed maximum degree
In this paper, we determine the unique graph whose least signless Laplacian eigenvalue attains the minimum among all non-bipartite unicyclic graphs of order n with maximum degree Δ and among all non-bipartite connected graphs of order n with maximum degree Δ, respectively.
