Temperature dependence of visual fusion frequency in Rana lessonae cam., Bufo bufo L. and Bombina bombina (L.) (Amphibia).

Abstract:

:The electroretinogram (ERG) was used to measure the flicker-fusion frequencies of Rana lessonae, Bufo bufo and Bombina bombina over the temperature range 5-25°C. In all three species the fusion frequency increased with increasing temperature. In the intermediate range of temperatures, the fusion frequencies of Rana lessonae and Bombina bombina doubled when the temperature was raised by 10°C.

  • I saw where you have been--The topography of human demonstration affects dogs' search patterns and perseverative errors.

    abstract::Performance in object search tasks is not only influenced by the subjects' object permanence ability. For example, ostensive cues of the human manipulating the target markedly affect dogs' choices. However, the interference between the target's location and the spatial cues of the human hiding the object is still unkn...
