ADVANCES IN ECOLOGICAL RESEARCH
X. Poikilothermy Versus Homeothermy "Are poikilotherms more efficient energy
transformers than homeotherms?" and if so, "how could homeothermy have
evolved?" These questions have been tackled by both ecologists and
physiologists ...

5. Adaptation. to. Temperature. Variation: Homeothermy-Endothermy. Table 5.1
Analysis of basal rate of metabolism in mammals*. 5.1 SYNOPSIS Endothermy is
the state in which body temperature is regulated by balancing the heat lost to the
...

The Biology of Human Survival : Life and Death in Extreme ...
The dispersion of heat is driven by the universe's thermodynamic imperative,
against which rage the furnaces of animal homeothermy. Body heat offers the
scythe of speed to animals of advanced phylogeny. In the current animal
kingdom, ...
Claude A. Piantadosi Professor of Medicine and Director of the Center for Hyperbaric Medicine and Environmental Physiology Duke University, 2003
Homeothermy consumes a significant proportion of an animal's energy. The
lower the body weight, the higher the ratio is of body surface area to
metabolically active tissue. Small animals must therefore sacrifice a large
proportion of their ...

The Hot Brain: Survival, Temperature, and the Human Body
For instance, a kind of homeothermy and even real endothermy has been
achieved in fish such as the tuna. Also, in reptiles such as dinosaurs, a kind of
homeothermy has been proposed because of their enormous mass/surface area
ratio.

Biology of Marine Birds
13.4 DEVELOPMENT OF TEMPERATURE REGULATION There is an intimate
relationship between the chicks' development of homeothermy and parental time
budgets. Until achievement of homeothermy of the chick(s) one parent needs to ...

Ecological and Environmental Physiology of Birds
A useful thermoregulatory index of homeothermy (H) compares the proportion of
the adult thermal gradient maintained by a chick during cold exposure (Dunn
1975) [Equation 2], provided that cooling is measured under standardized ...

The Origin and Evolution of Birds
Large Size and Inertial Homeothermy. That dinosaurs could have maintained
some degree of thermal stability, hence reasonable levels of activity — that is,
that they were homeothermic — has been suggested many times as far back as
G. S. ...

Biochemical Adaptation : Mechanism and Process in ...
Ectothermy has many advantages Despite some of its limitations, ectothermy is
seen to have certain major advantages over endothermic homeothermy.
Ectothermy allows a less energetically costly mode of living due to the four- to
fivefold ...
