The Spinal Nerves And Spinal Cord Of The Frog, Laverne A. Penn
The Spinal Nerves And Spinal Cord Of The Frog, Laverne A. Penn
Bachelors’ Theses
The common grass frog, Rana pipiens as wall as the bull frog, Rana catesbiana have served during many decades as material from which both the student of zoology and the investigator in biological problems have gathered valuable information about the anatomy and physiology of the common systems. Among these systems the central, peripheral, and sympathetic nervous system plays a coordinating role, because of the ramifying nature of its organization. It is the purpose of this thesis to investigate the gross and histological structure of these branches known as spinal nerves. When one inspects the literature on the nervous system of …
The Muscles Of The Forelimb Of Canis Familiaris, Charles G. Wilber
The Muscles Of The Forelimb Of Canis Familiaris, Charles G. Wilber
Bachelors’ Theses
In the study of the anatomy of the vertebrates, there has been much work done and a large number of the forms have been studied with great thoroughness. Among the domesticated animals this is particularly true. The students of the veterinary sciences have given us a deep insight into the structure and function of the mammalian body. This is most certainly true in the case of the dog. The species Canis familiaris has been used for many years in the studies of physiology and surgery. However, it is also true that a plenitude of literature relative to the anatomy of …
The Lungs And Respiration In The Frog, Peter P. Strassburg
The Lungs And Respiration In The Frog, Peter P. Strassburg
Bachelors’ Theses
In a wide sense, respiration is sometimes defined as the gaseous exchange constantly taking place between an organism and its environment. Essentially it is concerned with the intake of oxygen and the output of carbon dioxide but it also includes any other gas exchange that might occur. Small organisms take oxygen directly from the air or from the watery medium surrounding them into all parts of their structures. They also give off carbon dioxide from all their parts directly into the surrounding medium. They can do this successfully because they are small enough to have every cell in direct or …
