In biology, the definition of physiological adaptation goes like “changes in the basic metabolome of an organism to maintain homeostasis under the worst of environmental circumstances and trends”. Here, it becomes important for us to understand two basic terms: metabolome and homeostasis. Metabolome...
A suite of morphological andphysiological adaptationsis necessary in order to transition from a free-living to an ectoparasitic, hematophagous way of life. Among these are themouthpartadaptations required to pierce skin and inject saliva;digestive enzymesto process the large amounts of protein; an...
Mechanisms of Hemoglobin Adaptation to High Altitude Hypoxia Although the genetic basis of hypoxia tolerance has yet to be fully elucidated in any vertebrate species, evidence from a number of birds, mammals, and ... JF Storz,H Moriyama - 《High Altitude Medicine & Biology》 被引量: 216发表:...
Annals of Human Biology papers have more recently contributed to investigations on morphological and physiological changes with human ageing. Though there is a decline in the ability to adapt to environmental stresses with age this may be met by changes in adaptational strategy in physiological ...

a manner seemingly detrimental to protein secretion. Adaptation to near-zero growth conditions of recombinantK. phaffiiresulted in significant changes in the total protein, RNA, DNA and lipid content, and lipidomics revealed a complex adaptation pattern regarding the lipid class composition. The higher...

This article reviews the recent findings on responses, adaptation, and tolerance to HT at the cellular, organellar, and whole plant levels and describes various approaches being taken to enhance thermotolerance in plants. 展开 关键词: abiotic stress antioxidant defense climate change high temperature ...
Climate change poses a major threat to coral reefs. We conducted an outdoor 22-month experiment to investigate if coral could not just survive, but also physiologically cope, with chronic ocean warming and acidification conditions expected later this century under the Paris Climate Agreement. We rec...
2020). Responses to a stressor depend on the perceived threat and its interpretation (Boonstra 2013) and may be the product of adaptation or plasticity and habituation. Such responses will benefit individual survival if they reduce physiological stress or remove the threat, for example by moving ...
