Unpacking and validating the “physiological adaptation” core concept of physiology [PDF]
An Australian Task Force of physiology educators identified physiological adaptation as a core concept of physiology. It was subsequently unpacked into four themes and nine subthemes. These were rated, by the Task Force, Essential or Important and Moderately Difficult for students to learn.

The Impact of Equine-Assisted Therapy on Equine Behavioral and Physiological Responses
Equine-assisted therapies (EATs) have been widely used in the treatment of patients with mental or physical conditions. However, studies on the influence of equine-assisted therapy (EAT) on equine welfare are very recent, and the need for further ...

Bacterial Adaptation to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields Based on Experiences from Ionizing Radiation [PDF]
Bacteria, part of the three domains of life (Eukarya, Archaea, and Bacteria), are constantly exposed to man-made electromagnetic fields, which often exceed the intensity of natural electromagnetic sources.

A physiological adaptation to undernutrition
A total of 432 children under the age of 10 years were measured for height and weight, and the morbidity and mortality indices were studied in six counties of the maize region of the state of Yucatán, Mexico. Undernutrition, because of its relationship to morbidity and mortality, was considered an important selection factor operating between the ages ...
