Download or read book Genetics of the Norway Rat written by Roy Robinson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetics of the Norway Rat details the various genetic traits of Norway rat. The book covers a wide spectrum of trait inheritance, from color variation up to the various genetic mutation and quirks. The coverage of the text includes growth, metabolism, reproduction, and endocrinology. Several chapters also cover the physiological traits that include skeleton, viscera, sensory organs, and nervous. The text also takes into consideration the immunogenetics, pharmacogenetics, psychogenetics, and cytogenetics of the species studied. The book will be of great interest to mammalian geneticists. Researchers who are using rats as a test subject in their research will also benefit from the text.

Download or read book Galen s Prophecy written by Jerome Kagan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly two thousand years ago a physician named Galen of Pergamon suggested that much of the variation in human behavior could be explained by an individual's temperament. Since that time, inborn dispositions have fallen in and out of favor. Based on fifteen years of research, Galen's Prophecy now provides fresh insights into these complex questions, offering startling new evidence to support Galen's ancient classification of melancholic and sanguine adults. Integrating evidence and ideas from biology, philosophy, and psychology, Jerome Kagan examines the implications of the idea of temperament for aggressive behavior, conscience, psychopathology, and the degree to which each of us can be expected to control our deepest emotions.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wild, Norway rats successfully reproduce in climates ranging from the arctic to the tropics. The offspring are born and reared in burrows that offer limited protection from the surface environmental temperature and generally have elevated carbon dioxide concentrations. Because the young are born with little insulation, poor motor coordination, and immature thermal and respiratory regulatory abilities, the air properties of the postnatal environment present considerable thermal and respiratory challenges for rat neonates. Yet, little was known about if, when, and how the air temperature and composition of the postnatal environment affects the development of the young. Therefore, the effect of these factors on the morphological, physiological, and behavioral development of rat pups was examined. Environmental air temperature (cool 17°C, moderate 25°C, and warm 33°C) affected the development of body mass, hair coat mass, tail length, body length, ear length, and hind foot length, as well as food consumption, metabolic rate, and thermal preference. Environmental air composition (0% CO2 and 5% CO2) affected body mass, body length, air composition preference, and blood pH. These results indicate that despite their relative immaturity rat young detect and respond to environmental air factors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rat: Data and Reference Tables for the Albino Rat (Mus Norvegicus Albinus) And the Norway Rat (Mus Norvegicus) For a number of studies on the growth of the mammalian nervous system made by my colleagues and myself we have used the albino rat. In the course of the work we frequently felt the need of referring to other physical characters of the rat to which the nervous system might be related. This led us to col lect such data as were already in the literature and also led us to make further investigations. The facts gathered in this way have proved useful to us and are here presented in the hope that they will be useful to others also. The plan of the presentation is simple. An introduction treats of the rat as a laboratory animal, indicates the methods of gathering the data, and also gives examples of our use of the tables. This is followed by an outline of the classification of the common rats and by a brief statement of the history of the rat since it arrived in western Europe. The rest of the book falls into two parts. The first part deals with the domesticated albino rat - concerning which we have the larger amount of information. The second part deals in a similar way with the Wild Norway rat - the form from which the Albino has been derived. In connection with each part the several reference tables and the formulas employed for them and for the corresponding graphs, are-given, and at the end of the book a list of papers on the rat is added. In the two parts which form the body of the book the purpose is to present for the rat under normal conditions the funda mental observations - giving data and conclusions only. It is hardly necessary to add that in most directions our information is fragmentary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
