Birds have several morphological and physiological adaptations that allow them to use flight as their main form of locomotion. In order to maintain the high metabolic demands, physiological adaptations are mostly related to the cardiorespiratory system, which has a great capacity to use and circulate inspired oxygen, while the size of the heart appears as one of the main restrictions for …
Reptiles are the group showing the greatest diversity in the respiratory system. This great morphological diversity is reflected in their mechanical characteristics, so that not only the pattern of compartmentalization, but the type and distribution of the parenchyma influence lung compliance. In general, reptiles have a very compliant lung, and the greatest mechanical resistance resides …
Ventilatory processes are physiologically described through several variables that influence the acquisition of atmospheric O2. Tidal volume, breathing frequency, lung ventilation, and airway dimensions act mainly in the processes of moving external air to the respiratory epithelium, thus determining the amount of O2 that can be used by the organism. Traditional studies in comparative phy…
In order to maintain the high metabolic demands of endothermy and flying, birds possess a series of physiological adaptations mostly related to the cardiorespiratory system, which has a great capacity to use and circulate inspired oxygen, while the size of the heart appears as one of the main restrictions for long-term activities. Among the Palaeognathae birds, the Tinamidae are the only …
