PROPERTIES OF THE BLOOD OF THE SKATE (RAIA OSCILLATA)
In the acid range, carbon dioxide pressure has almost no effect on affinity of skate's whole blood for oxygen. In the physiological range the effect is appreciable but still only one-half as great as in man. No difference was discerned between the carbon dioxide dissociation curves of oxygenated and of reduced blood.

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

ABSTRACT Background Oral and oropharyngeal cancer survivors experience debilitating physical and psychosocial challenges. Little knowledge exists on the efficacy of interventions to enhance self‐efficacy in managing these challenges, increase survivorship preparedness, and improve health‐related quality of life (HRQoL).

ABSTRACT Aim Invasion‐driven changes in beta diversity (Δβ) are multifaceted (taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic) and are comprised of three components (total beta diversity, replacement, and richness difference); therefore, they represent a nine‐dimensional phenomenon.

Extinct Species Unearth Bergmann's Rule in Canidae
ABSTRACT Aim Interspecific patterns of Bergmann's rule may be concealed by species extinctions within clades. We evaluate whether incorporating extinct species and paleoenvironmental information improves the detection of Bergmann's rule in the family Canidae, and test whether temperature and net primary productivity (NPP) explain interspecific ...

VI. On the structure of the electric organ of Raia circularis. [PDF]
Abstract This paper gives an account of the structure of the cup-shaped bodies, which, as mentioned in a previous paper read 26th April, 1888, make up the electric organs of certain members of the skate family. The structure of these electric cups has been already studied in three species of skate, viz.: Raia fullonia, R. radiata, and

Urban Landscape Influence Orchid Bee Diversity in a Tropical Megacity
ABSTRACT The increasing urbanization has affected pollinator communities, such as Euglossini bees, which play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity through the pollination of numerous plants. However, the impact of different levels of urbanization on the diversity of these bees is still not fully understood, especially in large tropical urban ...
