...J. Z. Reed; P. J. Butler; M. A. Fedak ABSTRACT It is not known precisely how marine mammals are able to maintain muscle function during active swimming in breath-hold dives, when ventilation stops and heart rate falls. Examination of muscle biochemistry and histochemistry can provide information...
