... maturation of the carotid bodies, and their more effective breathing pattern arose by P14; these ages correspond to critical benchmarks in the full development of homeothermy in highlanders. However, highlanders exhibited developmental delays in ventilatory sensitivity to hypoxia, hyperplasia of type I cells...

... mammal thermoregulation homeothermy heterothermy The maintenance of a constant core body temperature ( T c ), known as homeothermy, requires an animal to use more energy and water than if it displays heterothermy. Torpor and hibernation are forms of heterothermy that involve regulated changes...
