		Enzyme adaptation along a heterothermic tissue - the visceral retia mirabilia of the bluefin tuna.
		We measured enzyme activities along a heterothermic tissue, the visceral retia mirabilia of the bluefin tuna, to test current theories of enzyme temperature adaptation.
		The heterothermic tissue model is ideal for the study of fundamental temperature adaptation because it eliminates confounding effects of whole-animal acclimation.

		Such compensatory changes in membrane composition are considered "homeoviscous adaptations." In this study, we examined a heterothermic tissue, the visceral rete mirabile of the bluefin tuna, for evidence of homeoviscous adaptation.
		We measured the proportions of phospholipid fatty acids and phospholipid head groups as a function of position along the rete thermal gradient, which has been estimated to be about 10 C. We found no effect of position along the rete on the composition of either phospholipid fatty acids or head groups.

		Maintaining a constant body temperature during stressful periods is such a metabolic expense for warm-blooded animals that some of them have become Heterothermic.
		Heterothermic: Having the ability to maintain a constant body temperature at some time, but allowing it to fluctuate at other times.
		The body temperature of some desert animals (camel, some antelopes) may rise significantly during the hottest part of the day, without injury to the animal.

		Two-toed sloths are capable of vigorous self defense, using their foreclaws to slash a predator and biting with their enlarged, canine-like cheek teeth.
		Two toed sloths are perhaps more heterothermic than any other mammal.
		Their body temperatures fluctuate from as low as 24 degrees C to as high as 33 degrees C. Unlike three-toed sloths, however, they do not thermoregulate by basking.

		Temperature will influence the structural properties of the lung, and will also affect the systems that determine the release and composition of surfactant.
		Heterothermic mammals that undergo large fluctuations in body temperature as part of their daily routine, represent excellent models for understanding the capacity of the surfactant system to cope with temperature fluxes.
		Heterothermic animals, such as fat-tailed dunnarts, Sminthopsis crassicaudata, Gould's wattle bat, Chalinolobus gouldii and ground squirrels, Citellus tridecemlineatus, experience fluctuations in body temperature when they enter and arouse from daily torpor or longer periods of hibernation.

		Alterations in the composition and function of pulmonary surfactant associated with torpor in a heterothermic mammal (sminthopsis crassicaudata).
		However, many mammals undergo large fluctuations in body temperature (heterothermic).
		Here, the surfactant lipid composition and lung compliance of warm-active dunnarts (Sminthopsis crassicaudata) and the homeothermic mouse (Mus musculus) (body temperature, TB =35-37 degrees C) were compared with those of dunnarts killed after 1, 4 or 8 hours of torpor (TB&LT20 degrees C).

		Studies of species communities lead to better understanding of the northern hardwoods ecosystem and provide some insight into the likely consequences of habitat alteration or environmental change.
		Bats are heterothermic mammals, and, as such, possible early indicators of climatic change.
		Knowledge of summer forest habitat associations of the nine listed bat species in northern New England was nonexistent until studies were initiated on the Bartlett Experimental Forest.

		2) Reptiles (and all classes other than Aves and Mammals) are heterothermic; mammals are homothermic-> this is the key to the differences except with birds.
		This explains clearly why sex differences such as found with alligators take place in these heterothermic animals.

		Possible explanation: The temperature in Ireland is, and has been in the geologic past, too cool (on the average)for most reptiles to survive.
		Reptiles are heterothermic and can not operate without temperatures well within 70 degress for weeks on end to find enough food to withstand a winter.

		Are there sequence motifs in SP-C specific to heterothermic mammals that may represent temperature adaptations?
		The project will involve the nucleotide sequencing of the SP-C gene from a range of pairs of related mammal species in which one member undergoes torpor or hibernation and its near relative does not.

		Because leopard geckos are ectothermic, their body temperatures will depend on the external environment, as opposed to internal metabolism such as in humans.
