Diving and Asphyxia: A Comparative Study of Animals and Man (Monographs of the Physiological Society)

First published in 1983, this publication matters the comparative physiological diversifications of vertebrate animals, in particular mammals, to cessation of respiring. those diversifications have been initially pointed out in species residing in aquatic habitats. The argument is gifted that the usual divers show a well-developed and comfortably studied instance of a extra normal defence opposed to asphyxia.

3 A). It is generally agreed that the prosencephalon, just like the other parts of the brain, comprise lateral plates on both sides connected by thin floor and roof plates and that the lateral plates can be divided into a ventral basal plate and a dorsal alar plate. However, regarding the spatial relations of these various components in the most rostral part of the neuraxis, widely divergent opinions have been expressed. (For reviews, see [138, 165]). Recent experimental and gene expression data [156, 157, 161, 165, 213] have shown that the rostral, prechordal part of the floor plate ends directly in front of the infundibular recess, and that the roof plate extends for some distance into the commissural plate (Fig.

This layer develops at the junction of the matrix zone and the mantle layer. Most authors agree that this layer appears relatively late, at the moment when neurogenesis is largely or entirely completed (Fig. 7: 9). However, according to Rakic [170], the subventricular zone can be recognized in the pallial wall of the rhesus monkey at as early as 45 days of gestation (the total duration of gestation is about 165 days in this animal). It persists after birth and, in vestigial manner, into adult life and even senescence.

10 J), the subpallial matrix gives rise to GABA-producing local circuit neurons. The latter migrate tangentially to the cortex (Fig. 9) through the subplate/mantle layer complex (small arrows in Fig. 10 J). Interestingly, a certain proportion of these elements actively migrate into the ventricular matrix. On reaching the pallium, they pause there for an extended period of time and then resume migration radially to take up their position in the cortical plate (dashed arrows in Fig. 10 J) [68, 98, 136].
