High-altitude environments pose significant physiological challenges for bird species, marked by hypobaric hypoxia, cold temperatures, and elevated ultraviolet radiation. The main adaptations include modifications in the oxygen transport cascade, thermoregulation, and metabolic rates. This study aims to explore the physiological and behavioral adaptations of three different populations of…
To maintain and modulate homeostasis and vital functions, vertebrates depend on oxygen. Despite that, freshwater turtles are able to tolerate oxygen depletion conditions, and anoxia, by lowering their metabolic rate drastically. In the environment, these anoxic periods, which are dependent on temperature, can endure up to forty days. The cellular metabolism of turtles changes from aerobic…
