Adaptive accounts of physiology and emotion

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2000
Rolls discusses various adaptive explanations of physiological processes and the emotions. We give a critical analysis of some of these from the perspective of behavioural ecology. While agreeing with the approach adopted by Rolls, we identify topics that could have been better presented by making use of the existing literature.

The physiology of adaptive change

Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2005
It has been recognized for a long time that the function of various neuroendocrine and physiological systems does not conform to the classic principal of homeostasis. The formulation of the ‘fight or flight’ reactions and the general adaptation syndrome by Cannon and Selye have provided an intellectual framework for considering many of these systems in

Physiological Adaptation

1993
Abstract This contribution is concerned with the changes which occur in the individual human organism when it experiences new environments. Many of these changes, though by no means all, facilitate living in the new environment and are recognized as components of’individual adaptability’.

Physiology of the cerebrovascular adaptation to pregnancy

2020
The adaptation of the cerebral circulation to pregnancy is unique compared with other organs and circulatory systems, because the brain requires relatively constant blood flow and water and solute composition to maintain homeostasis. Thus, a major adaptation of the maternal cerebrovasculature to pregnancy is to maintain normalcy in the face of expanded

Physiology of cold-adapted microorganisms

1999
Microorganisms able to grow at low temperature, that is near 0°C, have been known for over 100 years in natural and manmade cold environments such as marine and continental waters, soils and foods. Until recently, the molecular basis of cold adaptation was poorly investigated.

Physiological Aspects of Adaption

1982
Vicia faba L. is widely grown as a winter season crop in sub-tropical regions with mild winters and at high elevations (above 1200 m) under tropical conditions,whereas in temperate areas it is generally grown as a spring season crop thus avoiding the period of severe frost (26).

Mitophagy: A process that adapts to the cell physiology

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2013
This focus makes a case that mitophagy is not a straightforward process obeying simple rules. It is a complex process through which the cell gets rid of both damaged and healthy untainted mitochondria to adjust their amount, and in accordance with cellular energy requirements. Several aspects of mitophagy have been described in both yeast and mammalian

Physiological adaptation of waxapple to waterlogging

Plant, Cell & Environment, 1992
ABSTRACTWaxapple (Syzygium samarangense Men. et. Perry) plants receiving up to 40d of continuous flooding treatment showed no symptoms of physiological disorder, but the treatment resulted in early flowering. In this report, several physiological parameters of flooded plants are compared with those of nonflooded plants.
