Biochemical mechanisms of temperature adaptation in the chick embryo

The effect of a short-term cooling of the incubated eggs has been investigated on the intensity of oxidative phosphorylation and the activity of ATPase in mitochondria from muscles and liver of chick embryos and chicks. It was found that the decrease of temperature increases oxygen consumption in mu...
