This
symposium will examine the changes in respiratory dynamics that occur
with the transitions associated with ontogeny.
The respiratory systems of animals are dynamic morphological and
physiological systems that undergo significant changes during
development to
meet the metabolic needs of the growing animal.
Major
respiratory
transitions occur as an animal moves from the egg/fetal/larval stage of
life
to the neonate/juvenile stage. We will examine how the
respiratory needs of
oviparous and viviparous species are met during these transitions and
how
they deal with environmental stress.
