Oxygen consumption by the hermit crab, Clibanarius vittatus (Bosc, 1802) in declining oxygen tensions
(Elsevier B.V., 1983-12-01)
1. 1. Oxygen consumption and its relationship to stepwise declining oxygen tension were examined in the common striped hermit crab, Clibanarius vittatus. 2. 2. Weight-specific oxygen consumption varied with body weight ...
Associations between arterial oxygen saturation, body size and limb measurements among high-altitude andean children
(Wiley, 2013)
The relative influences of hypoxia and other environmental stressors on growth at alti-tude remain unclear. Previous work demonstrated an association between peripheral arterial oxygen saturation (SPO2)and anthropometry ...
Oxygen consumption of rats with broad intestinal resection
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2000-12-01)
The study was performed to investigate possible alterations in oxygen consumption in an animal model with broad intestinal resection. Oxygen consumption and the thermal effect of a short meal were measured in rats subjected ...
The effects of acute hypoxia and hypercapnia on oxygen consumption of the freshwater European eel
(1997-04-01)
When exposed to hypoxia, eels Anguilla anguilla were able to regulate and maintain VO2 down to a water oxygen tension (PWO2) of about 25 mmHg, a value far below those reported in other studies. When exposed to hypercapnia, ...
The effects of acute hypoxia and hypercapnia on oxygen consumption of the freshwater European eel
(1997-04-01)
When exposed to hypoxia, eels Anguilla anguilla were able to regulate and maintain VO2 down to a water oxygen tension (PWO2) of about 25 mmHg, a value far below those reported in other studies. When exposed to hypercapnia, ...
Effects of acute heat exposure on respiratory metabolism and blood glucose in freshwater fishes, Prochilodus scrofa (curimbatá) and Cyprinus carpio (carp) acclimatized to tropical winter
(1985-12-01)
1. 1. Routine oxygen consumption and blood glucose were determined from freshwater fishes, Prochilodus scrofa and Cyprinus carpio, exposed at high temperatures for 1 hr. 2. 2. Prochilodus scrofa had a significantly higher ...

Adjustments of the oxygen diffusing capacity to energetic demands during the development of the quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
(2011)
One of the hypotheses that attempt to explain physiological limitations of energy budgets is the symmorphosis hypothesis, which proposes that if matching structures to functional needs were combined with the strict economy ...
