Comparative physiology draws heavily on this diversity in its attempt to understand functions of cells, organs and organisms in their normal state. Figure 1. The number of species in classes of vertebrates August Krogh, a pioneer in comparative physiology, established the principle that for

COMPARATIVE PHYSIOLOGY (HBS. c) Department of Biology. Physiology. is the study of living matter and its interaction between internal and external environments. It integrates physical and life sciences in order to understand body functions and the origins of disease in both plants and animals. This discipline

Comparative Physiology of Nociception and Pain The study of diverse animal groups allows us to discern the evolution of the neurobiology of nociception. Nociception functions as an important alarm system alerting the individual to potential and actual tissue damage. All animals possess nociceptors, and, in some animal groups, it has been dem-

of comparative physiology is called physiological allometry. Adaptation is a key concept in comparative physiology. Adaptation at the population level is genetic, i.e. changes in gene frequencies, while individual animals adapt to environmental changes by non-genetic mechanisms. In comparative physiology, such

Comparative physiology is the explora- tion of physiological principles through examination of the functional diversity among animal species.

We will use a comparative approach to examine the physiology of animals including major physiological systems. Topics to be covered include metabolic, temperature, osmotic and ionic regulation; respiration and circulatory transport, digestive, muscle, nervous, and locomotor systems; endocrine regulation and biological rhythms. We will

The dominant role of comparative physiology (syn. experimental zoology) in the recent history of animal biology is noted. Its.
