Exercise and aerobic scope in fishes have attracted scientists' attention for several decades.
While it has been suggested that aerobic scope may limit behavioral expression and …

In the 1950s, Arthur C. Guyton removed the heart from its pedestal in cardiovascular
physiology by arguing that cardiac output is primarily regulated by the peripheral …

Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) negatively impacts exercise
performance in fish species but the physiological modifications that result in this phenotype …

Aerobic exercise capacity is dependent on the cardiorespiratory system's ability to supply
oxygen at a rate that meets energetic demands. In teleost fish crude oil exposure, with the …

Abstract Effects of dietary seaweed supplementation on basal physiology and health
biomarkers were assessed in meagre (Argyrosomus regius) subjected to bacterial infection …

Vascular resistance and conductance are reciprocal indices of vascular tone that are often
assumed to be interchangeable. However, in most animals in vivo, blood flow (ie cardiac …

Ectotherms are predicted to show a reduction in absolute aerobic scope (AAS= maximum−
standard metabolic rates) if habitat temperatures surpass optima. However, thermal …

Glucocorticoids, a class of metabolic hormones, impact a wide range of traits (eg, behavior,
skeletal growth, muscle maintenance, glucose metabolism), and variation in concentrations …

Ongoing climate change is predicted to affect the distribution and abundance of aquatic
ectotherms owing to increasing constraints on organismal physiology, in particular involving …

Studies of animal physiology not only provide valuable knowledge for the species in
question, but also offer insights into human physiology. This thought is best highlighted by …
