... to physiological differences in the nervous system, in target organs, or in both of these. Steroid hormones are a global signal that can coordinate the sexual differentiation of neuromuscular circuits, and changes in the amount, localization and targets of these signals may give rise to differences in sexually...

...-licence-1-1/ Summary: Persistent neuromotor activity of respiratory muscles in bullfrogs during aquatic overwintering is unlikely to underlie normal respiratory motor function after months without lung breathing, despite having respiratory mechanics that operate underwater. Neuromuscular...

...Jonna L. Hamilton; Claire R. Edwards; Stephen R. Holt; Mary Kate Worden SUMMARY In cold-blooded species the efficacy of neuromuscular function depends both on the thermal environmental of the animal's habitat and on the concentrations of modulatory hormones circulating within the animal's body...

...Martha Skerrett; Amy Peaire; Patricia Quigley; A.
